The Festival Winds for many years have been a resident ensemble of the Festival of the Sound.
Festival Winds are a Harmoniemusik ensemble consisting of pairs of oboes, clarinets, horns and bassoons with a double bass.  We regularly have guests join us to fill out the Winds as the instrumentation requires.  A woodwind quintet (flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon and horn) is also a core ensemble of the festival.
