Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra: Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto
2020-03-20 - 2020-03-21 | Centennial Concert Hall, 555 Main St, Winnipeg, Manitoba, R3B 1C3, Canada
Tchaikovsky’s elegant and romantic Violin Concerto is so beloved, we often forget it was first considered unplayable. But today’s leading violinists master yesterday’s most fiendish difficulties and have made it an evergreen staple to music lovers. Soloist Vadim Gluzman will perform on the very Stradivari violin which Tchaikovsky had in mind when writing the work.
In his Sixth Symphony, Shostakovich brilliantly expresses the contradictions of his troubled Soviet world. In the words of one writer: ‘If you want light music, you’re going to get it – and with vengeance.’

THE POWER OF LEADERSHIP

THE POWER OF LEADERSHIP
“Leadership is not about titles, positions, or flowcharts. It’s about one life influencing another.” – John C. Maxwell
For those of us fortunate enough to have been touched by a leader or mentor who truly made a positive impact on our life, it’s easy to understand the power and responsibility that lies within leadership.
An effective leader will not only inspire those around him or her to realize their full potential, but also leads by example, creating a ripple effect with the capability to create hundreds, or even thousands of dynamic and effective leaders for generations to come.
As the first female CEO in Manitoba Hydro’s history, Jay Grewal knows the opportunity she has to inspire through leadership, and thrives under the pressure.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from Jay’s nearly 30 years of leadership experience, and what it takes to be the type of leader people want to work for.
