Pentharmonia - Winds of Change

The turn of the 19th century marked a period of political, social, and artistic revolution in France. Winds of Change is a sonic snapshot of Paris during and immediately following the Revolution.

Established in 2021 by students at The Juilliard school, Pentharmonia is a period instrument wind quintet specializing in late-Classical repertoire. Not long after Haydn began exploring string quartets, composers sought similar chamber combinations for wind instruments, and the quintet emerged. Pentharmonia seeks to capture the unique blend and sonorities of the original instruments which inspired the composers of this repertoire.
