Versatile and vibrant, the musicians of WindSync “play many idioms authoritatively, elegantly, with adroit technique, and with great fun” (All About the Arts), showing off the uniquely wide-ranging sonorities of the wind quintet. The group’s charismatic and personal performance style, combined with a three-pronged mission of artistry, education, and community-building, lends WindSync its reputation as ”a group of virtuosos who are also wonderful people, too" (Alison Young, Classical MPR).
At Whalen Center on Wednesday, April 10, WindSync will perform a concert of Buxtehude and Mozart, as well as Shawn Okpebholo's Rise, and Apollo by Marc Mellits, commissioned by WindSync in 2019 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing.
The artists of WindSync will also give a masterclass at 4:00 p.m.
Concert and masterclass are both, as always, FREE and open to the public.
