James Wintle was born in 1942 in Pittsburg, Kansas, the son of Jack and Daisy Wintle, his love of music and his immense talent as a pianist was recognized early through lessons with Will Humble, who was a highly influential force on the young man as both a teacher and musician, representing a lineage of piano instruction traced back to Ludwig van Beethoven.
Wintle was educated entirely in his home state, earning a Doctor of Musical Arts degree in composition from the University of Kansas, where he studied with John Pozdro. Later teachers included Douglas Moore and Norman Dello Joio.
His compositions have been performed on four continents and were commissioned and performed by many major chamber ensembles, including The American Brass Quintet, The Chestnut Brass Quintet, The Chester String Quartet, Voices of Change, Hexagon, The Orion Ensemble, The Chelsea Chamber Ensemble, The Aspen Wind Quintet, The Verdehr Trio, The Walden Piano Quartet, The Whitman Quartet, The Dorian Wind Quintet, The American Piano Quartet, and others.
He received grants and awards from Mid-America Arts Alliance, the Oklahoma Arts Council, the Organized Research Fund of Southeastern Oklahoma State University, the Everette Foundation, the Delius International Competition, the Oklahoma Music Teachers Association and the Burlington Company. His work was also recognized by the State of Oklahoma with the Governor's Arts Award for Community Service.
