Hailed by critics for “spunky, vibrant and captivating” (Deseret Morning News, USA) performances with “unmatched sonorities and moving expressivity” (Der Rheinpfalz News, Germany), Dr. Justin W. Lewis is emerging as a conductor and arts administrator with a contagious passion for uniting people through music. Dr. Lewis is a conductor in the U.S. Air Force band program. Under his leadership, Air Force bands have given more than 2,000 performances in 61 countries for more than a billion people through radio and television broadcasts.
The Harrisburg Patriot News writes, "[his music] takes on a glorious voice. It is brooding and then jaunty and melancholy and then exuberant. Its range is so great that a listener wonders how it can be created...." The Lehigh Valley's Morning Call writes, "Justin Lewis presented a superb program. The concert provided such joy and pleasure that everyone must be looking forward to another. His music has charm and the aforementioned assets will be recognized in future aspirations and accomplishments." Currently the commander of the United States Air Force Band of Mid-America, Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, Dr. Lewis leads 61 Airman-Musicians to perform over 300 events each year throughout the Midwest that honor America’s service members and veterans, inspire young people to serve, and connect the public with their Air and Space Forces. Dr. Lewis organizes, trains and equips the unit to communicate the Department of the Air Force’s strategic messages with Americans at home and strengthen international partnerships when deployed abroad. In 2021, content for the band's holiday tv specials was nominated for two regional Emmy® Awards. |
