What a beautiful event filled with nuances and surprises. A known luthier and the best fiddler in three country counties teaching classical violin students how to bluegrass fiddle? And one of those country counties includes Wheatland Music Festival grounds. That would be Danny Seabolt. A musical prodigy from Mona Shores High School gives back to musical kids as he comes back to pay it forward? That would be Jacob Halmich. A professional violinist so renown for her work as a teacher of violin that she teaches classes across the oceans with a web cam. That would be Becky Parks. Is this an afternoon concert or a plot for Glee? And yes, sign your young people up for the strings if you are from Oceana, Kent and Muskegon counties: Junior Strings Host Free Music at Whitehall United Methodist, @PureMichigan, 12-17 @ 7 PM w/ Seabolt Parks & Halmich http://ow.ly/rKBdG
