Geneviève Gros-Louis with violin.

One-night-only in the GTA: Huron-Wendat violinist, film composer, and producer Geneviève Gros-Louis brings her one-woman symphony original works, soaring violin, and conversation rooted in Indigenous stories and resilience.

From Cannes (preluding Killers of the Flower Moon) and Paris Fashion Week to museum features across North America, Geneviève bridges film, music, and fashion. Her work includes scores for National Geographic’s Life Below Zero and projects with the Clooney Foundation for Justice; performances on Dancing with the Stars; and a decade as a 1st violinist with the Des Moines Symphony and Metro Opera. A proud member of the First Nations community from Wendake, Québec, she uses her platform to illuminate mental health, the experiences of women facing sexual violence, and the urgent challenges in Indigenous communities.
