From the Studio: Spokane Symphony Orchestra Baroque Series: Venice the Magical City

Conductor, Eckart Preu, and Chorale Director Kristina Ploeger spoke with Verne this morning about the upcoming Spokane Symphony Orchestra Baroque Series, to be performed on March 17 at Westminster Congregational Church, and March 18, at the Spokane Valley Church of the Nazarene.

For more information, please visit the Spokane Symphany Baroque Series page.

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.
