The Borealis Wind Quintet, nominated for a 2006 Grammy Award in the Chamber Music Category, is acclaimed as one of America’s preeminent chamber ensembles. The highest musical integrity, irresistible energy and five-fold charisma distinguish Borealis Quintet’s artistry. The Philadelphia Inquirer writes that “they demonstrated the sort of rapport that characterizes the very best chamber playing.” Borealis’s program will include the New Jersey premiere of Dance Episodes for Wind Quintet by Brian DuFord, Roaring Fork Quintet by Eric Ewazen, and classic gems by Bozza and Rossini/Briccialdi.
“A polished, elegantly turned performance… lively, communicative readings… the performance was a scintillating one.” -The New York Times
“The Borealis Wind Quintet are a superb ensemble. Their playing is precise without ever being merely pedantic; their control of dynamics is masterly and their internal balance is faultless.”
-MusicWeb International
