From the Studio: Music Conservatory of Sandpoint Presents "Two Boy Sopranos in Concert"

Sandpoint Music Conservatory will present "Two Boy Sopranos in Concert" on Mothers Day, May 14, 2017.  This morning, the two sopranos - Cody Moore and Andrew Lapadat -  and Conservatory Executive Director Karin Wdemeyer, joined Verne in the studio for a mini-recital in anticipation of the upcoming concert. The singers were accompanied by Heidi Moore on flute and Tom Rodda on piano.   The Mothers Day concert will be held at the First Presbyterian Church on 417 N 4th Avenue in Sandpoint.

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.
