Pentaèdre

**Pentaèdre** is a beloved Canadian wind quintet hailing from Montreal, known for their vibrant performances and knack for blending classical traditions with contemporary flair. Formed in 1985, this talented ensemble—flute, oboe, clarinet, horn, and bassoon—has carved out a niche in chamber music, delighting audiences with works spanning Baroque gems (like Bach) to modern hits (think Ludovico Einaudi). Their recent releases, including *Hindemith: Chamber Works* and *Poulenc: Musique de chambre*, highlight their versatility, while collaborations like *Marie Hubert - Fille du Roy* showcase their playful synergy with vocalists. Passionate about homegrown talent, Pentaèdre often spotlights Canadian composers, such as Jacques Hétu, and breathes new life into classics through fresh arrangements (shoutout to Claude Lapalme’s *Belle rose du printemps*). Whether touring internationally or charming local crowds, they’re all about making wind music feel fresh, approachable, and downright fun.
