The next campus concert with musicians from The Philadelphia Orchestra will feature Jeff Lang on the horn along with violinist Daniel Han and pianist Natalie Zhu. The free performance is tonight, March 3rd at 8 PM in the Van Rensselaer Ballroom (3320 Powelton Ave.). So students, feel free to come in your pajamas. Here are two other reasons why students won't want to miss this concert: we're raffling off a sleek 8 GB iPod Nano and we're also providing dinner. The Drexel Campus Concert Series with The Philadelphia Orchestra is presented by the Westphal College, the Pennoni Honors College and Drexel Student Life.

Jeffery Lang is Associate Principal Horn for the Philadelphia Orchestra and was previously Principal Horn for the Israel Philharmonic. Jeff has been a guest player with the New York City Opera and played on the soundtracks for the films Failure to Launch, The Producers and The Good Shepherd. Violinist Daniel Han has been a member of the Minnesota Orchestra and the Fort Worth Symphony, and was a guest concertmaster of the Daejeon Philharmonic in Korea. Pianist Natalie Zhu has performed throughout North America, Europe and Asia as a soloist, recitalist and chamber musician. In 2005 Natalie and renowned violinist Hilary Hahn released a CD for the Deutsche Grammophon label.
