Gale Force - The Prairie Winds
The Prairie Winds present some of the finest wind quintet music written by North American composers. The richness and diversity of the past century’s music is evident through the warmth and lyricism of the quintets of Barber, Persichetti, and Copland, the mischievous tongue waggling and technical challenge of John Harbison’s writing, and the pathos of Jacques Hetu’s Quintette. All the music is powerful, comical, and personal, but most of all, it is the sounds of 20th century North America.
