The library welcomes the West Point Band Wind Quintet!
The Academy Wind Quintet presents a varied and colorful program of virtuoso chamber music for winds, featuring repertoire ranging from the late eighteenth century courts of Europe to the contemporary masters of the twenty-first century.
This ensemble comprises players from within the West Point Concert Band and carries on the great tradition of woodwind playing that has existed at West Point since 1815. The members of the quintet are committed to bringing a wide variety of musical styles to their programs, including turn-of-the-century waltzes, popular music, and educational works like Peter and the Wolf.
The Academy Wind Quintet performs music for official military functions, social occasions, formal concerts, public service, and educational youth clinics and concerts.
We are pleased that the Pound Ridge Boy Scouts will present a Color Guard to walk the Band in carrying the US flag.
