PERRYSBURG — Shortly after Rob Myak started playing cello, his teacher took him to hear the Toledo Symphony.
That concert, the Perrysburg High School senior said, inspired him to take his music studies more seriously.
On Friday, the results of that study will be on display when he will be featured as a soloist with the Toledo Symphony Orchestra in a 7:30 p.m. performance at Blessed John XXIII Catholic Community. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children 12 and under. Call (419) 874-6502.
Myak will perform “Song of the Birds” by Pablo Casals.
Myak said he’s soloing with the symphony at the recommendation of Michael Puppos, pastoral associate for Music and Liturgy at Blessed John.
Puppos explained: “I felt like it would be a great opportunity for him, and to showcase some of the talent we have in our parish.”
