In an ideal world, a student of music would play simply for love of the sound. In the real world, it's also nice to have an audience. Accordingly, Lyn Ritz and 11 string students at the University of Dayton are hoping for a good turnout to Strings Night, a concert of solo student performances on violin, viola and cello.
Admission is free and open to the public.
These students work very hard and look forward to playing for an appreciative audience. Viola student Bob Hunter concurs wholeheartedly. At age 75, and studying through UD's continuing education senior fellow program for senior adults, Hunter knows a student never outgrows the desire to play in public. After studying and practicing, you want to share what you've learned with others. It gives you a sense of fulfillment.
