THE BOREALIS WIND QUINTET -  7:30PM
Nominated for a 2006 Grammy Award in the Chamber Music Category, it is acclaimed as one of America's preeminent chamber ensembles. The highest musical integrity, irresistible energy and charisma distinguish Borealis in the chamber music field. Audiences love their exquisite programming that includes the finest of the classics, engaging commissioned works, opera arias and works for piano and winds. The Washington Post praised their "sensitive collaborations that have a sophisticated and cosmopolitan air."  Peter G. Davies of the New York Times described one concert as "a polished, elegantly turned performance..,each work received lively, expert and musicianly treatment by this skilled and exceptionally talented chamber group." Joseph Horowitz, also of the New York Times describes "lively communicative readings ... the performance was a scintillating one." The Philadelphia Inquirer writes that "they demonstrated the sort of rapport that characterizes the very best chamber playing."

AMERICAN CHAMBER PLAYERS
Among today's most exciting and innovative chamber music ensembles, The American Chamber Players were formed in 1985 by Miles Hoffman from a core group of artists of The Library of Congress Summer Chamber Festival. The six members of the ensemble perform repertoire ranging from familiar masterpieces to neglected gems to newly commissioned American works, and their fascinating and delightful programs with varied instrumental combinations have been as enthusiastically praised as their extraordinary, dynamic performances.  They have toured throughout North America, engaged and re-engaged by prestigious concert series from Florida to British Columbia, and they have traveled to Paris for a series of special gala concerts at the Paris Opera and the Bibliothèque Nationale. They have also been heard countless times on National Public Radio's Performance Today and on local radio stations throughout the United States
