_____________________

Following widespread critical acclaim for his album Forgotten Sounds, clarinetist Graeme Steele Johnson returns to Delos alongside the wind quintet WindSync, a prominent ensemble in the American chamber music scene known for its innovative, self-generated repertoire. This album explores the diversity of American music through the legacy of influential pedagogue Nadia Boulanger, whose impact shaped generations of composers. Featuring works by her students—including Philip Glass, Elliott Carter, Quincy Jones, and Marion Bauer—the recording highlights a broad stylistic range, including Bauer’s Woodwind Quintet, presented here for the first time. The project offers a musical portrait of Boulanger’s enduring influence on American composition.

Founded in 2009 at Rice University, WindSync is an acclaimed wind quintet recognized for its dynamic performances and innovative programming. The ensemble gained prominence through major competition wins and achieved chart-topping success with its 2024 album recorded at Abbey Road Studios. Its members, based across major U.S. cities, maintain an active international touring schedule, appearing at leading venues and festivals. Known for redefining traditional chamber music experiences, WindSync performs largely self-curated repertoire, often from memory, and collaborates with contemporary composers to expand the genre. The group is also deeply committed to education, outreach, and fostering new musical talent.
