Don’t miss the phenomenal Swiss-Ecuadorian guitar duo Hermanos Gutiérrez, performing for the very first time in a symphonic setting! From the vast, arid expanse of an imaginary Wild West to the bright glow of a sonic cosmos, and through the nostalgic musical atmosphere of 1960s Italian cinema, this world premiere promises an unforgettable journey into a one-of-a-kind Latin-inspired soundscape.

Hugo Bégin
Hugo Bégin has achieved equal mastery of the trombone, sackbut, piano, and organ. A graduate of the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal, he studied trombone with Joseph Zuskin and the renowned Alain Trudel, and organ with Mireille and Bernard Lagacé. He has worked as a freelance trombonist with the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Orchestre Métropolitain, the Orchestre symphonique de Québec, the Orchestre symphonique de Laval, Les Violons du Roy, and I Musici de Montréal, among many other ensembles throughout Quebec. Bégin’s interest in composing and arranging music has been present from youth. He works as a composer, arranger and copyist with several orchestras and individuals, and has recently been commissioned to write arrangements for the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Orchestre Métropolitain, and I Musici, to name only those, as well as compositions for the Ensemble Horizon, the Quatuor de trombones de Montréal and the Orchestre régional d’Abitibi-Témiscamingue.
