The Tel Aviv Wind Quintet was founded in 2009 and quickly established itself as a leading Israeli chamber ensemble. It appears regularly throughout Israel, is extensively involved with cultural and educational activities, and recently toured the US, Europe and China. One of the Quintet’s primary goals is the performance of works by Israeli composers, many of which have been specially written for the group. In 2016, the ensemble released its first album, which included a world premiere recording of a work by Ari Ben-Shabtai. Its 2018 album, LIVE, consists of concert recordings with pianist Yaron Kohlberg. The Quintet is supported by the Israel Ministry of Culture and Sport, which awarded it a 2024 Daniel Binyamini Award, and is a member of the Independent Musicians Organisation of the Felicja Blumental Association. It has received grants from the Patrick and Lina Drahi, Ronen, Haifa Arts and Rabinovich foundations, and the Israel Lottery Council for Culture and Arts.
