The National Symphony Orchestra recently held its "Notes of Honor" concert, a sold-out event at the Kennedy Center dedicated to honoring America's military families. This annual tradition aims to celebrate the profound sacrifices made by service members and their loved ones.
The patriotic holiday spectacular included performances by vocalist Melinda Doolittle, orchestral renditions, and a special Armed Forces Service Song Medley. This segment invited members of each military branch to stand as their anthem was played, fostering a strong sense of pride and recognition.
The concert sought to provide a much-needed night of joy and appreciation for families navigating the unique challenges of military life, including deployments and separations, especially during the holiday season. Support from partners helped make the event free for service members and veterans.
