Hugo Wehrle (born July 19, 1847 in Donaueschingen ; † March 29, 1919 in Freiburg im Breisgau ) was a German violinist, music director, composer and music teacher.

Life

Wehrle studied from the age of 4 to 12 with his father, who was a member of the Fürstlich Fürstenbergische Hofkapelle. Then the boy was given to Ferdinand David at the Leipzig Conservatory for further training and, after two more years, to Jean-Delphin Alard at the Conservatoire de Paris , where he also studied for two years. In 1865 he got his first job as first violinist in the Weimar court orchestra . In 1868 he joined the Württembergische Hofkapelle Stuttgart , where he worked for 30 years as music director at Edmund Singer's side . Due to a handicap, he was forced to give up this position and take early retirement. In 1898 he moved to Freiburg , where he took over the upper class of violin playing and the management of the ensemble class at the local conservatory under the direction of Carlo del Grande .

One of his students was Karl Bleyle (1880–1969).
