Presenting a special fall performance by a touring contemporary quintet, Montana Chamber Music Society presents the talents of WindSync on Friday, November 10th. The concert will be held at Reynolds Recital Hall on the Montana State University campus. Music begins at 7:30pm.
Versatile and vibrant, the musicians of WindSync “play many idioms authoritatively, elegantly, with adroit technique, and with great fun,” wrote All About the Arts. WindSync launched an international touring career after winning the 2012 Concert Artists Guild Victor Elmaleh Competition and the 2016 Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition. The ensemble has since appeared on legendary stages including Ravinia, the Met Museum, Shanghai Oriental Arts Center, the Library of Congress and Carnegie Hall.
In demand for their ability to embed in communities, WindSync has served in residencies with the Grand Teton Music Festival, Orcas Island Chamber Music Festival and the Lied Center. Winner of the 2022 Fischoff Ann Divine Educator Award, the ensemble regularly coaches at training programs nationwide, collaborates with youth orchestras, and performs for thousands of young people each year. The group also produces events year-round in their artistic home base of Houston, Texas.

The ensemble’s regional tour continues with “An Intimate Evening of Music & Conversations” at Bozeman’s JLF Architects at 6:30pm on Nov. 9th, and an outreach concert at Whitehall’s Star Theatre at 7pm on Nov. 11th.
