From the Studio: Violinist, Itamar Zorman

Israeli violinist, Itamar Zorman, will perform this evening with the Gonzaga Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Kevin Hekmatpanah. He spoke with Verne this morning about his background in music, how the immigration of people from Europe, Russia and other places in the world, have enriched the musical culture of Israel, and performed a preview of tonight's concert.

For more information and tickets, please visit Gonzaga Symphony Orchestra.

Verne Windham got his start at Spokane Public Radio 20 years ago. “I came in to complain and they hired me.” He’s now the Program Director, as well as the host of Morning Classical and Concert of the Week. When choosing music for Morning Classical, Verne likes to keep the agenda as broadly defined as possible. For Concert of the Week, he focuses on the best of recent local performances, mostly classical in nature. For many years, Verne was also the conductor of the Spokane Youth Orchestra. He enjoys gardening, his vintage car and playing French horn.
