A young,
fresh and energetic ensemble, WindSync, is thrilling audiences with their
unique approach to classical music. WindSync specializes in creative and
engaging interactive performances that inspire audiences of all ages. Critics
and audiences alike rave about performances that expand the woodwind quintet
repertoire with several world premiere pieces that were written or arranged
especially for WindSync. Houston public radio called WindSync, “innovative
unconventional and exciting” and Idyllwild Arts Academy praised WindSync as
“one of the most talented groups of young musicians on the scene today.”
Recognized for their adventurous programming, WindSync was named the 2011-2012
Ensemble in Residence for the Da Camera of Houston Young Artist Program. The
ensemble was a finalist in the prestigious Astral Artist Competition in
Philadelphia in 2009 and Artist in Residence for The Music Bus Tour in 2010.
Recently, WindSync was named Artist in Residence for 2012 at Newark Academy in
Livingston, New Jersey and was invited to perform at the 34th Annual Chamber
Music America Conference in New York City in January 2012. Dedicated to
building a sense of community and promoting arts engagement, they appear in the
concert series “first Tuesday at Methodist” and their programs have been
enjoyed by children and families at The Children's Museum of Houston and at M.D
Anderson Children's Hospital. In Houston, where they are based, WindSync was
the founding ensemble of Classical Revolution and have been heard numerous
times on the Houston Public Radio’s “The Front Row.” As Windsync begins its
third year with an array of accomplishments, it is apparent why CultureMap
Houston writes, “the world is saying yes to WindSync.”
