“Without music, life would be a mistake.” - Friedrich Nietzsche Antigua Winds was founded in 1991 by Fred Hoey in San Antonio, Texas. As a musician and educator, Mr. Hoey thought, simply, that music enriches lives, and music is a natural gift to human beings. It was Mr. Hoey’s belief that everyone should have the opportunity to learn and play music. With 20 years of full-line manufacturing experience, Antigua has evolved the design of wind instruments, always challenging and improving time tested standards with a highly skilled engineering team. Our research and development department utilizes today’s most sophisticated technology to ensure quality material composition and precision measurements. Antigua insists on selecting the most suitable materials for each instrument ranging from Pisoni pads to temper-blued needle springs. Documented work procedures and employee training help to build a core staff of highly skilled artisans, capable of producing some of the highest quality instruments on the market today. The investment in our 27 acre state-of-the-art manufacturing facility demonstrates Antigua’s commitment to remain at the forefront of instrument design and production. Our passion for innovation has led us to collaborate with some of today’s most progressive instrument designers including Peter Ponzol and Morrie Backun. Listening to their feedback and working through innovations in key shapes, neck angles, mechanisms, ergonomics, intonation, and instrument response, Antigua has helped to redefine and shape what today’s musician requires. From a local shop in San Antonio, Texas twenty years ago, Antigua has grown, now with distributors in over 60 countries. Antigua musical instruments are being played across the world, from the earliest beginning musicians to the most demanding professionals. Antigua’s legacy is built on passion, so we welcome you to take a closer look. Let us help “Find the Music in You.”

"The Antigua Pro-One Saxophone is a Leap Into the 21st Century." - Peter Ponzol

Redesigning a musical instrument is a daunting and delicate challenge. Peter Ponzol has been designing saxophones for more than three decades, in addition to being a well-traveled and experienced player. Very few people have Peter's understanding of the design principles of the instrument, and the Antigua Pro-One is the ultimate expression of his concepts. As Peter says, "This collaboration finally gets a lifetime of ideas out of my head and into reality."

Ponzol designed neck The Peter Ponzol designed P1 neck is free-blowing with nimble response, precise intonation, balanced resistance, improved player comfort and ease of playing in the altissimo register.

“This is a state of the art clarinet showing what happens when you bring together two of the most sophisticated manufacturing facilities in the world and a mutual desire to make the best product possible.” - Morrie Backun

In celebration of our 20th anniversary, Antigua is proud to announce the launch of the AntiguaBackun wooden clarinet. The creation of this instrument has been a joint project between Antigua Winds and renowned woodwind designer, Morrie Backun. This clarinet starts with premium grade grenadilla wood, properly aged in controlled settings. It is within the Backun facility in Vancouver, Canada that the wood is turned, bored and machined to exacting tolerances using the most advanced machinery and

skilled personnel. These bodies, bells and barrels then undergo careful hand-finishing work and inspection by Backun technicians. The finished wooden bodies then travel to Antigua’s state of the art facility where precision manufacturing technology is used to produce the keys. Skilled artisans hand fit posts, rings, rods, springs, and keys to ensure that each instrument performs optimally. Black Valentino pads provide perfect seal, creating a clarinet that stands up to today’s demands and will meet tomorrow’s expectations.

Musicians search for an instrument they can develop a special bond with, one that becomes an extension of themselves. The Antigua Power Bell is the horn to fill that role. Contemporary design, premium materials, impeccable craftsmanship and road-worthy reliability team up to make the Power Bell a classic. From the closely guarded processes of annealing the body, the large bell flare, the design of the neck, the size and placement of the body ribs, to the double key arms on the low C, B and Bb keys, no amount of detail is spared in the making of the Power Bell. To cap it off, each Power Bell receives exquisite hand engraving and is available in a variety of beautiful finishes.
