Assembly: Celebrating over 30 years of delighting and educating young listeners, the North Wind Quintet presents Classic Fun, a fast-paced, entertaining program about chamber music, composition, orchestration and the wind instruments of the orchestra. The interactive performance allows audience members to follow along as the ensemble presents the music of Mozart and Bach, as well as music from popular movie and television themes. The rousing finale features audience members performing with the quintet. Critically acclaimed in Europe, Mexico and the United States, this ensemble is an enjoyable way to introduce young listeners to classical music.

The North Wind Quintet is a Los Angeles-based performing ensemble dedicated to developing new audience awareness for chamber music and the performing arts. Members of this talented ensemble have performed individually with symphony orchestras and have taught on the faculties of university music departments, but their greatest love is woodwind chamber music. Members include Patricia Cloud Kaufmann, flute; Jonathan Davis, oboe, Lawrence Hughes, clarinet; Nathan Campbell, horn; and Jenice Rosen, bassoon.
