About

In 2001 during the inception of  Howe Sound Music Festival,  Madeline,  along with her parents, was given the opportunity to visit Squamish.  Her parents are Ed & Millie Hildebrand who back in 2001 were the  Piano, Choral, Vocal & Band adjudicators.  February 2012, eleven years later Hildebrand was invited up to Squamish to perform, just one month before her MASTERS Jury Recital.  She wowed Squamish!   Hildebrand's achievements continue.  Join us Sunday Feb. 3rd at 6 pm for another exciting program by Hildebrand.  HSPAA is delighted to have her back to Squamish to perform during their 20th Season.
