Robert Van Wyck
Robert Van Wyck was born in Hamilton, Ontario and began his music studies on the piano
and recorder. He received a B.Mus. (History and Theory) from McMaster University in 1975
and a Licentiate in Flute Performance from McGill University in 1981. He extended his
studies on modern flute with Robert Aitken and Marcel Moyse and on baroque flute and
recorder with Sue Carduelis and in workshop with Hans-Olav Grosset, Stephen Preston and
Bart Kuijken. He has performed in orchestras and chamber groups in Montreal,
Toronto, Hamilton and Thunder Bay. He has been involved with the Suzuki approach since the
late 80s in both Hamilton and Thunder Bay. Much of his professional career was devoted to
music education both vocal and instrumental. Latterly he extended his interests to the teaching
of French. Since retiring from school teaching in 2009 he continues to develop young flutists
in the Thunder Bay area, sing in local choirs, perform in chamber music concerts and instruct
at the LU Faculty of Education.

Tracy Gibson was born and raised in Atikokan. The closing of the Steep Rock iron mine in
1979 necessitated a move for her and her family to Williams Lake, B.C. where Tracy became a
member of the Williams Lake Players Club, the town’s community theatre group.
Each spring, the Players Club would compete with other plays throughout the region in the
Zone Festival. Their entry of ‘Odd Jobs’ took top honours in Prince George and Tracy earned a
Best Supporting Actress award for her role as Jeanette. The play went on to compete in
Victoria B.C. where Tracy received a favourable adjudication from Canada’s very own Mavor
Moore (writer, producer, actor and critic).
When the family moved back to Ontario in 1988, Tracy undertook writing plays. Her comedies
‘ Here’s to Atikokan’, ‘An Evening at the Chalet’, ‘Suzette’s Closet’, ‘Unravelled’, ‘Father,
Oh…’ and’ Bridie & Company’ have been performed in Atikokan, Fort Frances and Thunder
Bay.
She is currently working in collaboration with Tom Foley on ‘Flowers for Viola,’ a docudrama depicting the events of the Hot Stove Murder at Flanders, Ontario in 1944.
Tracy looks forward to the challenge of adjudicating at this year’s festival and is eager to see
the upcoming talent.
