Information

WindSync is now established as a vibrant chamber ensemble performing wind quintet masterworks, adapting timeless music to their five instruments, and championing new works by today’s composers. Versatile and vibrant, the musicians of WindSync “play many idioms authoritatively, elegantly, with adroit technique, and with great fun” (All About the Arts). In the span of one performance, the quintet can cover vast musical ground from revitalized standard repertoire to freshly-inked works to folk and American Songbook, the common thread telling a compelling story about music history and our human selves.

WindSync launched an international touring career after winning the 2012 Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition and the 2016 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition, and they continued as prize winners at the 2018 M-Prize Chamber Arts Competition. WindSync has appeared in concert at Ravinia, the Met Museum, Shanghai Oriental Arts Center, and Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall.

Winner of the 2022 Fischoff Ann Divine Educator Award, WindSync regularly coaches at training programs nationwide, collaborates with youth orchestras, and performs for thousands of young people each year. In its artistic hometown of Houston, the ensemble presents a concert season in local landmark spaces, partners with businesses and organizations across disciplines of education, science, and art, and presents the Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival.
