The New York Woodwind Quintet was formed in 1947. The ensemble made its New York debut in January 1954 and has maintained its position of pre-eminence in the field of chamber music ever since. The NYWQ has performed throughout the United States and in numerous tours of Europe, East Asia, Russia, and in Central and South America.
The New York Woodwind Quintet is Ensemble-in-Residence at the Juilliard. The group has premiered works by major composers such as Quincy Porter and Elliott Carter and has also led the way in reviving lesser-known works by Franz Danzi and Anton Reicha, among others.
The NYWQ's commissioned works include Samuel Barber’s Summer Music and quintets by William Bergsma, Alec Wilder, Gunther Schuller, Ezra Laderman, William Sydeman, Wallingford Riegger, Jon Deak, and Yehudi Wyner.
