Celebrate WSO Concertmaster Gwen Hoebig’s remarkable career with a concert featuring her talented family of musicians and the WSO in a program with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Claude Debussy, and Richard Strauss, highlighting both personal and orchestral brilliance.
Join us as we celebrate the illustrious career of long-serving WSO Concertmaster, Gwen Hoebig, with a concert that showcases her exceptional talent and musical legacy. She is joined by her talented family of musicians for this special occasion: husband and pianist David Moroz, violist Alexander Moroz, and cellist Juliana Moroz.
Acclaimed as one of Canada’s top violinists, Hoebig has led the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra as Concertmaster for 37 seasons! Alongside her orchestral role, she shines in solo performances, chamber music, and teaching, captivating audiences with her mastery of new music and dedication to nurturing young talent globally.
The program opens with two lesser-known gems by iconic composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the Sinfonia Concertante and the Concerto for Violin and Piano. Both works will highlight the remarkable musical abilities of the Hoebig family.
The second half of the program features the WSO’s full orchestral splendor with Claude Debussy’s La Mer, a masterpiece that vividly depicts the sea in all its moods. You can almost hear the waves crashing and feel the sea breeze!
The evening concludes with Richard Strauss’s Till Eulenspiegels lustige Streiche (Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks), a tone poem that portrays the mischievous adventures of the titular character through thrilling and imaginative orchestration. This work brings a whimsical end to the evening, with Gwen’s violin leading the mischief.
