A highly selective program allowing woodwind students extensive experience working with MSM ensembles.
Woodwind majors are provided with a wide array of performance opportunities and courses taught by a faculty of dedicated teachers and performers. The programs of study for woodwind majors are designed to develop skilled performers who are familiar with the standard solo, ensemble, and orchestral literature for their instruments. Students will achieve a high degree of professional competence and learn appropriate stylistic approaches to the literature of various historical periods. In addition to studies with our expert faculty, students are provided additional opportunities to play for and observe world-renowned guest artists.

Watch and learn how nearly two dozen students in the MSM Woodwind program in 2020-2021 explored compelling ways of engaging with virtual audiences while at MSM.
We are fortunate to have the wind quintet Windscape in residence at Manhattan School of Music. The ensemble–whose members are flutist Tara O’Connor, oboist Randall Ellis, clarinetist Alan R. Kay, hornist David Jolley, and bassoonist Frank Morelli–gives a series of concerts and supervises a group of student chamber ensembles.
