In this season finale, part of the ninth annual Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival, WindSync shows a new side of composers who have written for the group through their works for solo instruments and strings. Each member of WindSync will offer a performance highlighting the unique qualities of their instrument, from stark landscape-inspired miniatures by Viet Cuong, selected by oboist Noah Kay, to the danceable grooves of Marc Mellits, selected by clarinetist Graeme Steele Johnson. Horn player Anni Hochhalter will share a new original work, and the five musicians will unite to perform a world premiere by 2025 composer-in-residence Akshaya Avril Tucker. Kinetic Ensemble returns as festival guest artist, collaborating on strings.

Bar and light bites will be provided for all guests.
