Quint-Essential Winds debuted in 2008 bringing together five musicians with more

than 150 years of collective study and performance spanning three continents.

While changes in schedules and priorities have led to variations in the makeup of the
 
group, commitment to quality performance and programming flexibility has endured. We

maintain an extensive library and can play everything from a Bach Fugue to Basin Street

Blues. The quintet has appeared at a variety of venues and in numerous communities in

Maine and New Hampshire performing recitals and at wine tastings, weddings, dinners and

Christmas parties. We have redirected our focus to specialize in performances

for young audiences and have prepared several pieces for quintet and narrator.
