Philip Glass Live - The Complete Piano Etudes
2018-01-28 19:30 - 22:30 (America/Winnipeg) | Centennial Concert Hall, 555 Main St, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3B 1C3, Canada
“Seeing the work of two decades compressed into an evening [of Piano Etudes] was immensely satisfying as America’s greatest living composer stakes his claim for immortality.”
—The Guardian
Philip Glass conceived The Complete Piano Etudes as a set of twenty works for solo piano in order to expand his piano technique. In the 1990s Glass composed sixteen of the etudes with each taking a unique approach to the instrument. After a decade, the final four piano etudes were commissioned in celebration of Glass’s 75th birthday and premiered in Perth, Australia in 2013. Glass and international guest pianists Vicky Chow (USA/Canada), Jenny Lin (USA), Jónas Sen (Iceland), and Madeline Hildebrand (Winnipeg) will perform The Complete Piano Etudes in an evening of master piano works for the 21st century.

“I am going to say this as emphatically as I possibly can. This album contains some of the most beautiful music I have ever had the mortal pleasure of hearing… Forget about what you thought beauty was about. [This music will] cut into your heart like a scalpel.”
—Opus on Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson’s Academy Award®-nominated Children of Nature soundtrack
“[Zwilich] has written a striking, sumptuous and somber work that reaffirms her high standing among American composers… This is an immediately affecting work that may find wide popularity – succinct, mostly tonal, and ‘romantic’ in its directness of expression.”
—Tim Page, New York Newsday, on Symphony No. 3
Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson holds a special place in Iceland and its music scene. He has worked with Björk and members of Sigur Rós, contributed deeply emotional scores to award-winning films, worked with directors such as Jane Campion, won the European Film Composer of the Year Award and was nominated for the 2017 Harpa Lifetime Achievement Award. Ellen Taaffe Zwilich (USA) is the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize in Music, is a four-time Grammy nominee, and was designated Musical America’s Composer of the Year in 1999. She composed her Symphony No. 3 for the New York Philharmonic’s 150th anniversary. The concert opens with a WSO commission by Karen Sunabacka (Winnipeg). #DryColdConversations draws inspiration from Manitobans’ impressions of winter, collected by the composer through conversations on Facebook, with refugees, Métis relatives and friends.
Presented with the support of The University of Manitoba Icelandic Department, Arni Thorsteinson and Susan Glass, and Peter Johnson

Philip Glass World Premiere
2018-02-01 19:30 - 22:30 | Centennial Concert Hall, 555 Main St, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3B 1C3, Canada
“The JACK Quartet has received such praise for its involvement with new music that it’s easy to take for granted how superbly accomplished these players are.”
—The New York Times
“There’s something almost evangelical about the JACK Quartet. Such is the talent and focus of this young, New York-based string quartet that it has quickly established itself as an important proponent of contemporary music, and the ensemble’s intense and audacious performances have been known to convert even the most conservative listeners.”
—The Financial Times
The JACK Quartet (NYC) is one of the world’s leading string quartets specializing in music by living composers. In this special evening, WNMF teams up with JACK to present a cross-section of musical styles, featuring the world premiere of Philip Glass’s String Quartet No. 8, co-commissioned by the WSO and Carnegie Hall. With this concert, WNMF continues exploring alternative spaces, this time in the Manitoba Museum’s newly expanded Alloway Hall. The program also features works for string quartet by Sabrina Schroeder (Canada/UK) and Brian Ferneyhough (UK/USA), and the Canadian premiere of Georg Friedrich Haas’s (Austria/USA) stunningly hypnotic String Quartet No. 9, performed in total darkness.
Philip Glass’ String Quartet No. 8 is a co-commission by the Winnipeg New Music Festival and Carnegie Hall

The Hope to Life Radiothon, presented by Maric Homes, is a day where we share stories of hope and healing from Manitobans who, like so many of us, received exceptional care at HSC Winnipeg. Research and medical teams also provide insight into their work at Manitoba’s flagship hospital, and how it is transforming the lives of patients and their families. The radiothon will broadcast live at HSC Winnipeg from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm on 680 CJOB, with a special remote from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm on Power 97.
With the help of donors and supporters, the HSC Foundation works to improve the care and facilities at HSC for the patients who need the hospital every day. More than 500,000 patients rely on HSC every year to be there for them in times of need. HSC has the busiest trauma centre, and is the only place that provides Manitobans with specialized care in neuroscience, spinal, burn, transplant, liver, thoracic, and reconstructive surgery.
Donate today at www.hopetolife.ca. Your donation supports patient care and allows researchers and medical teams to provide tomorrow’s care today, right here in Manitoba. Your donation to the radiothon will go even further this year thanks to Wawanesa and Johnston Group, who are matching gifts up to a total of $20,000.
