Arcadia Winds are trailblazers for Australian wind music. Formed in 2013 at the Australian National Academy of Music, Arcadia Winds are known for their energetic, joyful and spontaneous performances. The ensemble has performed in concerts and at festivals across Australia and abroad, and have been heavily involved in educating and inspiring the next generation of young wind musicians.

Arcadia Winds has championed new Australian music since its inception, through commissioning, performance, recording and their annual composition prize for young composers. To celebrate their 10 year anniversary, Arcadia Winds are set to perform ten new works by Australian composers. This performance in the David Li Sound Gallery will feature the first five of these new compositions.
