The Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society and the Fresno State Department of Music will kick off the spring semester musical concert season on campus with “An Evening of Cello Music” at 8 p.m. Jan. 20 at the Concert Hall in the Music Building.

The concert will feature Dr. Thomas Loewenheim on cello and pianist Hatem Nadim.

On the program are performances of Giuseppe Tartini’s “Variations on a Theme by Corelli,” Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Sonata for Cello and Piano in A-major, Opus 69” and Johannes Brahms’ “Sonata for Cello and Piano in F-major, Opus 99.”

Loewenheim is the director of orchestras and a professor of cello at Fresno State. Nadim is a staff accompanist at Fresno State.

Loewenheim was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi last April. The concert acknowledges his musicianship and will raise funds for Phi Kappa Phi’s Fresno State chapter.

Phi Kappa Phi is the nations’ oldest, largest and most selective all-discipline honor society. The Fresno State chapter was established in 1953 and includes 800 students, faculty and staff as current members.

Concert tickets are $7 general admission, $6 for university employees and seniors and $5 for students.
