Founded in 1965, the Wingra Woodwind Quintet is ensemble-in-residence at the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Music. Since its formation, the quintet has established a tradition of artistic and teaching excellence. The ensemble has been featured in performance at national conferences of MENC (Miami), MTNA (Kansas City) and the International Double Reed Society (Minneapolis).
In addition to its regular statewide touring, the quintet has been invited to perform at such college campuses as the University of Alaska-Fairbanks, Cornell University, Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, the University of Nebraska, Western Michigan University and Florida State University. New York Times critic Peter Davis, in reviewing the ensemble’s Carnegie Hall concert, stated "The performances were consistently sophisticated, sensitive, and thoroughly vital." The Wingra Woodwind Quintet has recorded for Golden Crest, Spectrum, and the School of Music recording series, and recently released an educational video entitled Developing Woodwind Ensembles.
