Wingra Wind Quartet at Monroe Arts Center
Founded in 1965, the Wingra Wind Quintet at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Mead Witter School of Music is one of the longest running quintets in the nation. In addition to its extensive home state touring, the quintet has been invited to perform at numerous college campuses, including the universities of Alaska-Fairbanks, Chicago, Illinois, Nebraska, as well as Northwestern Western Michigan, Florida State, Cornell, the Interlochen Arts Academy, and the Paris Conservatoire, where quintet members offered master classes. The Wingra Wind Quintet is one of three faculty chamber ensembles in-residence at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Mead Witter School of Music. Deeply committed to the spirit of the Wisconsin Idea, the group travels widely to offer its concerts and educational services to students and the public in all corners of the state.
