The music for our new work, Hold Sacred, is composed by the multi-talented, Akshaya Avril Tucker with video by Four/Ten Media. Check out our Projects page for more information on this and other commissions!
WindSync is on PATREON!
Become a patron and get early access to new content, monthly virtual hangs and more!
We believe that chamber music and the powerful, portable art of wind playing are having a moment right now, and we invite you to support our work through a Patreon subscription. Whether it means time in the recording studio, collaboration with composers and musicians we admire, technique talk, or reinventing the meaning of a concert, we're ready to create a "new normal" for our music that looks like the world we live in. We'll share all the pre-release content here, and we look forward to seeing you at our next Fan Club Zoom hangout!
