The Wyoming Festival is a 5-day chamber music festival devoted to the creation of new concert music inspired and informed by the wild and natural setting of Grand Teton National Park.

Through a competitive process, five music composition fellows—Becka Dulaney, Asia Fajardo-Diamond, Daniel Galbreath, Bonnie McLarty, and Shawna Wolf —have been invited to participate along with festival founder, director, and composer, Anne M. Guzzo, a former UW Department of Music professor.

Their music will be performed by Wyoming Festival chamber artists-in-residence, world renown musicians, all of whom also play in the Grand Teton Music Festival Orchestra. The ensemble is led by violinist Holly Mulcahy and includes Barbara Scowcroft, violin; Kayla Williams, viola; Steve Laven, cello; and Stephanie Key, clarinet.
