MOUNT OLIVE- The University of Mount Olive will host the Lopez Tabor Duo on Thursday, Jan. 26 at 7:30 p.m. in the Hazel Waters Kornegay Assembly Hall located at 207 Wooten Street in Mount Olive.

The event is a part of the university's Concert Series which provides students and local residents the opportunities to enjoy the finest performers of various musical genres at no cost.

Alfonso Lopez, who plays the violin, and Michelle Tabor, who plays the piano, have performed and toured together as the Lopez Tabor Duo in the United States and Venezuela since 2004. The duo plays a wide variety of master works by composers who wrote for both violin and piano including Brahms, Mozart, Beethoven, Piazzolla, Kreisler, and Wieniasksi.

The Lopez Tabor Duo has received high praise from music critics who describe their performances as "musical bliss" and "flawless display of violin virtuoso" technique.

The concert is free and open to the public.For more information, contact Dr. Franklin Gross by email at wgross@umo.edu
