Oboes, Clarinets, Horns, and Bassoons are the standard instruments, in pairs (there are quartets, sextets, and octets) Additionally, there is some music of the romantic and modern eras, some of it adding the flute.. WindFest brings advanced winds students from far and wide (all corners of the U.S., even the U.K., as well as Canada, over the 14 years since it began) under the tutelege of expert professional wind performers (see list for this year). Over the years that WindFest has been running, the standard of our student partiticpants has become higher and higher - many of them have already gone on to fill positions in important orchestras (including Principal positions!) The students are often virtually professional already, and in the three concerts presented by KWCMS, there are also professional pianists to help out in the many great pieces for piano and winds. Each of our concerts has one piece (or so) with a pianist. Our pianists are professional artists, as befits the music (almost every year we do the Mozart and the Beethoven Quintets for piano and wind, for example) WindFest also presents free afternoon concerts for the community (without piano) - see listing below - scroll to end of the WindFest entries.
