Topeka Woodwind Quintet
Organized in 1982 (doesn't seem that long), the Topeka Woodwind Quintet has been performing at local venues, both public and private. Our repertoire ranges from Celtic traditional to Classical and some modern pieces.
This grouping is the traditional Classical ensemble of (front row) Flute/Piccolo, played by Sylvia Klingbeil; Clarinet, Stephanie Reynolds; (back row) French Horn, Clifford Manning; Oboe/English horn, Jim Mosher (me), and Bassoon, Ginger Patterson.
Call or email me (harperbear@att.net) for booking and availability information.

Castle & Cross Consort
The Consort isn't quite as 'old' as the Quintet, but it's close, 1988 I believe. We have performed at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival for a number of years but had to stop due to other obligations. We have as wide, if not more so, a range of musical selections as the Quintet; including a number of original works by Steve Clark and myself.
We also have two CDs available on my Recordings page.
The members are: (left to right) Myself, Steve Clark, Gitta Gronewaller and Jane Kerns.
We did not disband as was previously mentioned, but have reorganized. Steve has retired from the group and we have added Mark Rustman, long time friend and music cohort with the Topeka Symphony. He is already fitting in well and we look forward to many events with him.
