Arts at Noon series spotlights violinist Walter Verdehr

The 37th season of the Grand Valley State University Arts at Noon series continues Wednesday, January 28, with a performance by violinist Walter Verdehr.
 
Verdehr, professor of violin at Michigan State University, presents a unique program, featuring “Sonata in F Major” by Felix Mendelssohn, “Fantasy for Violin and Harp” by Camille Saint-Saëns, and two works by James Niblock. His performance style has been described by The Times of London as “sweeping and vigorous.” The Vienna Express called him a “perfect violinist with beautiful blossoming tone and noble musicality.”

All Arts at Noon concerts take place in the Cook-DeWitt Center, begin at noon, and last approximately one hour. The concerts are free and open to the public.
