WindsUnlimited is a unique new wind ensemble brought together by clarinetist, Chen Halevi. The group comprises of seven outstanding musicians from around the world.


Chen Halevi’s inspiration to form the group came from his love of playing on period instruments: ‘When you play on period instruments it gives you a whole new perspective and sound world. It opens up new horizons for interpretation and it gives us enormous joy to play these instruments.’


WindUnlimited’s members play on accurate replicas of instruments which were played during the 18th and 19th century. The musicians bring their knowledge and experience as wind-players in the 21st century to the music of classical and romantic period.  They aspire to convey their modern way whilst following the style of the period, thus bringing a fresh and creative approach to the repertoire. 


WindsUnlimited aims not only to play masterpieces written for this type of ensemble by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven but to also explore lesser-known jewels of the classical and romantic period such as; Johann Christian Bach, Hoffmeister, Krommer, Castil-Blaze and Lessel.
