Washington D.C.'s Ground-breaking Woodwind Quintet
The Georgetown Quintet
TGQ dares to go where other quintets never go. This group commissions new works, brings them to widely varied audiences. Interactive toddler birthday celebrations and people that usually hear Go-Go music and rap have been dazzled by music by The Georgetown Quintet.
Nominated for a Washington Area Music Award as Best Chamber Ensemble of 2009, TGQ has entertained audiences at Strathmore Mansion, the Old Town Hall of Fairfax, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Arts, the Benning Neighborhood Library in Washington, DC and Black Rock Center in Germantown, MD.
Individual artists of The Georgetown Quintet have performed with the National Symphony Orchestra, the Baltimore Symphony, the Williamsburg Symphony, the National Philharmonic Orchestra, and R&B icon Ray Charles.
Your playing was flawless, amazing, and delightful. I know that it represents many, many hours of practicing....
Please give my thanks to all the members of The Georgetown Quintet.
