North Wind Concerts

Read Profile

North Wind Concerts is a Toronto-based, not-for-profit organization created to celebrate and encourage the enjoyment of chamber music of many kinds, and with a soft focus on music for wind instruments.

NWC offers concerts of early, Classical and contemporary chamber music, as well as our ongoing “Encircling the World” series, which brings musicians who play similar instruments from different cultures and backgrounds together for solo performances, Q&A with the audience, and improvisation. NWC also presents musical workshops, and school shows.

Our 2024/25 season includes “Acquiescent: The French Baroque In China”; a pop-up 'pot pourri' of 18th- and 20th-century music; a chamber program for clarinet, cello and piano featuring the Brahms Trio; “Vice & Virtue”, a collaboration with Capella Intima and the Gallery Players of Niagara; and “Encircling the World” programs focusing on drums, single reeds, and harps.

“Music is life itself. What would this world be without good music? No matter what kind it is.” - Louis Armstrong
