Acclaimed international violinist Dr. David Podles will return to several Ocean County Library branches in the coming weeks, including Brick, for a series of “Musical Medleys.”
Podles, laureate of three prestigious international competitions, has performed solo and in symphony, chamber, orchestra and ballet ensembles in Russia and the former Soviet republics, as well as Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall and other New York venues. He will present three shows in Ocean County, with the Brick performance titled, “International Music of the Movies.”
