Wind& Steel’s music spans an incredible stylistic range, weaving together timeless classical masterworks, sweeping film soundtracks, and iconic rock and pop classics.

Over the years, the duo has crafted dozens of original arrangements, transforming everything from the sweeping romance of Braveheart’s "For the Love of a Princess" to the acoustic intimacy of the Beatles' "Blackbird" and the epic scale of Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven.."

In addition to their contemporary crossover covers, Wind & Steel delivers stunning interpretations of core classical repertoire. Their performances range from the deeply lyrical, such as Ravel's Pavane for a Dead Princess, to highly virtuosic and fiery masterpieces like Piazzolla's Histoire du Tango.

Beyond the stage, founders Ben and Kristin are deeply rooted in music education. In 2009, they established Da Capo Music Studio in Elburn, Illinois. What began as a, one-room studio has grown into one of the largest and most respected music studios in the western Chicago suburbs. Today, with 17 years of community impact, Ben and Kristin are recognized as two of the most highly sought-after music instructors in the greater Chicagoland area.
