Music from the Fringe: Violin Masterpieces performed by Rita Lammers
The Collingwood Arts Center has always catered to artists on the Fringe. Their latest event offers a mixture of the classical combined with adventurous multimedia programming. Music from the Fringe: Violin Masterpieces features solo and duo works performed by the Toledo Symphony Orchestra's own Rita Lammers, with Steinway Artist Sergio Ruiz on piano. Lammers is set to grace the stage of the CAC'S historic Lois M. Nelson Theatre on Friday, November 4th at 7pm.
The highly anticipated concert marks the debut of Lammers' $7@7 series.
