The Dunbar Saxophone Quartet (DSQ) is a performing ensemble of the PWCB that can provide sophisticated music for any occasion in or near Prince William County, VA. The quartet is named for the street where they practice in Dale City. With a library of nearly 400 selections, including classical transcriptions, ethnic, jazz, swing, ragtime, folk, patriotic, pop oldies, Christmas, and original compositions for sax quartet, the DSQ can entertain audiences of all ages. Some of our favorite pieces are Ulla In Africa, Mary Did You Know, Heads Up, Alexanders’s Ragtime Band, Dance of the Buffoons, Don’t Worry Be Happy, Americana Suite, Irish Suite, The Iberia Suite, Fly Me to the Moon, and Fugue in G.
The DSQ has performed concerts at local retirement communities, libraries and a bookstore, background music at the Patriot Center prior to the graduation ceremony for the School of Information Technology and Engineering, chamber music for a wedding reception at the Officer’s Club at Fort Belvoir, background music for the Literacy Volunteers Recognition Dinner, a large Christmas party, and a Manassas Museum fundraiser and open house.

Quin Winds
The Quin Winds is a woodwind quintet that performs a variety of music written for flute, clarinet, oboe, bassoon and French horn. They play pieces from a wide range of genres from the beautiful classical repertoire of Beethoven, Holst, Mozart and others to more contemporary pieces, musicals and pop songs. The Quin Winds is composed of members from the Prince William Community Band.
The Irish Whistle Girls
We are long-time flute players and members of the Prince William Community Band, with a combined 130+ years of musical experience. While the flute remains our primary instrument, we also enjoy exploring and performing on a variety of others.
Inspired by the lively music of our Irish heritage, we came together to share our love of Celtic tunes through the pennywhistle. Our repertoire includes both traditional Irish favorites and popular melodies that audiences know and love.
We hope you enjoy the toe-tapping, hand-clapping spirit of this music as much as we enjoy performing it—and that you leave the concert humming one of the tunes long after the final note has been played.
