The Westwood Wind Quintet, one of the world's leading wind ensembles, has performed literally thousands of concerts throughout the US. Over 50 years of devotion to chamber music have made the Quintet what the Washington DC Star termed "first-rate in every way...a superb performing group." Acclaimed as "probably the best group of this kind anywhere" by the New Orleans Courier, the Westwood Wind Quintet has held numerous residencies at various universities. The Quintet is featured on other recordings on Columbia, Crystal, and WIM Records. The members of the group on this CD are John Barcellona, flute; Peter Christ, Oboe; Dan Atkins, clarinet; Kenneth Meyer, bassoon; and http://www.crystalrecords.com/westwoodwindquintet...., horn.
"a recording which, equally good in tone quality, balance and clarity, can also be described as superlative." Gramophone Magazine
