Our opening concert, Creep Cryptograms, and Kapustin, will take place at Bert Church Theater on August 9th, and of all of our incredible events, this might be the one we’re the most excited about. Not just because it showcases the very best of our incredible resident artists, but because we will also be collaborating with Claude LaPalme and members of the Red Deer Symphony on our final piece. Which, incidentally, features Tong and Maitreyi, your own Duo Perdendosi, as soloists. The piece, the Kapustin Concerto for Piano, Violin, and String Orchestra, encapsulates the steampunk vibe, borrowing from jazz, ragtime, country, blues, and so many other genres in a way that can best be described as a steampunk party.

Hello Airdrie!

It’s been a hot second! Have you missed us?

Well…we’ve missed you!

Since August 2023, our co-founders, Duo Perdendosi, have been joined by our alumni resident artist, cellist David Dietz, to perform around Montreal and Ottawa, fundraising for Windwood and various other charitable organizations.

As the official Resident Ensemble, the Windwood Trio, Maitreyi, David, and Tong are so thrilled to be returning to their home turf, where they fell in love with playing together - right in the Windwood Residence House, right at the heart of Airdrie’s beloved spaces.

“The City of Airdrie wisely recognizes the tremendous value and importance of arts and culture for their citizens, neighbours in surrounding communities as well as the appeal to visitors. Everyone was warmly welcomed to experience the thrill of exceptional music-making in a joyous, accessible and completely unpretentious celebration of music offered with open and happy hearts to the whole city and beyond. Kudos to all who are nurturing this little seedling of a quirky, original and characterful music festival that deserves to be helped thrive and enliven the souls of all who listen. Windwood Festival is destined to become a cherished summer jewel drawing music lovers both near and far. Bravo Airdrie!”
