Downtown with Imani Winds: Amplify

Celebrating nearly three decades of transformative music-making, the GRAMMY®-winning and four-time nominated Imani Winds has led both a revolution and an evolution of the wind quintet. Imani Winds will perform a wide range of exciting wind quintets from across the centuries, beginning with an arrangement of Felix Mendelssohn’s Scherzo from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. They’ll play Pacquito D’Rivera’s A Little Cuban Waltz, written for them and commissioned by the Imani Winds Foundation. The evening also includes Elliott Carter’s 1948 wind quintet, the late Lalo Schifrin’s La Nouvelle Orleans from 1987, and Shawn Okpebholo’s Rise, written in 2023. Imani Winds will make this fun summer evening sparkle. The Cape Cod Chamber Music Festival will present this concert free to the community. All are welcome and no tickets are required.
