Welcome to season 18!! Explore the season below, and get your tickets today at our website: https://www.windsync.org/events

The fall brings a number of university residencies: Northern Arizona University, University of Nevada - Las Vegas, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, and Mercer University. Concerts will still be open to the public, but we are honored to also be guest educators for the next generation of chamber musicians at their schools.

In the spring, we look forward to premiering and recording Kian Ravaei's quintet Freedom is the Thing with Feathers, based on folk songs from the US, Iran, and Armenia, and developing a new collaborative program and major sextet for piano and winds by Timo Andres.

In our artistic hometown of Houston, we will also continue treasured partnerships with the Houston Youth Symphony Coda Music Program and the Center for Performing Arts Medicine, in addition to presenting our season and the Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival. A big "THANKS Y'ALL!" goes out to everyone who joined us earlier this month at Miller Outdoor Theatre!

Memories from Friday night in Houston 🤩. It was a total and complete honor to present Jon Kimura Parker’s debut at Miller Outdoor Theatre, in a collaboration that unfolds new dimensions of music-making for us every time.

Big shoutout to the visual team that made us larger than life: Tiffany Schrepferman for lighting design, R. Eric Bowers for animations, and Monica Hindmarsh for photography.

With a high five for our compatriots Musiqa Houston and Houston Cinema Arts Society for adding up-to-the-minute sights and sounds to this “Double Feature,” and a hug for the experts on the production crew, who always take great care of us. Thanks also to the Miller Outdoor Theatre Advisory Board for this special homecoming 🙏

Onward to the 2026-2027 season 🏁!
