Music of childhood and folklore by Reicha, Dvorak, and Ginastera
The featured work, Antoine Reicha’s ebullient E-flat major quintet, represents the very beginning of classical music for the band’s five instruments. The second half of the program takes inspiration from childhood and folklore and showcases WindSync's ability to transform music originally written for piano, strings, and even a full orchestra. In each piece, we find a reflection of ourselves, pieces of our own stories and dreams for the future.

Premiering new funk-inflected music by Marc Mellits honoring the NASA Moon Missions
WindSync partners with the Lunar and Planetary Institute to combine music and space in this follow up to 2017's hit Voyager concert program. A speaker from the Lunar and Planetary Institute will present a mini-lecture about the Apollo moon missions, and WindSync will premiere music by Marc Mellits that honors the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. The hard-driving rhythms of Mellits' minimalist, funk-inflected music recall the technological obsession of the Space Race and the music styles emerging in the 1960s.

A meeting of the minds with Austin's celebrated American roots string quartet
WindSync is joined by their friends in invoke, an Austin-based string quartet, for a meeting of the minds. Invoke performs as a standard string quartet on violin, viola, and cello, but they are just as comfortable with mandolin or banjo. The band's music encompasses traditions from across America, including bluegrass, Appalachian fiddle tunes, jazz, and minimalism. This Onstage Offstage Chamber Music Festival main stage concert offers an up-close and personal look at musical collaboration.
