The Imani
Winds on selecting a composer's music to perform:
For Imani Winds, it's not just about
playing whatever comes its way. Whether selecting a composer to commission or a piece of music to play, for this group it's
either unanimous or it's not at all. "Our first priority is to have a composer we - and I do mean all five of us
- like. We cannot have even one person feel even slightly wishy-washy about it" - Rochester City Newspaper, January 2012 Full Article
