Imani Winds has established itself as one of the most successful chamber music ensembles in the United States. Since 1997, the Grammy-nominated quintet has taken a unique path, carving out a distinct presence in the classical music world with its dynamic playing, culturally poignant programming, adventurous collaborations and inspirational outreach programs.

“There’s a big, vivacious, steel-belt of a sound Imani gets when playing at the top of its lungs that is most appealing. … As the group approaches the end of its second decade, this might be what triumph sounds like.” –The Philadelphia Inquirer
