The Ohio Northern University Department of Music presents an evening of chamber music in the Snyder Recital Hall in the Presser Building on Sunday, Feb. 16, at 7 p.m. The event is free and open to the public.
ONU music faculty members Lance and Pamela Ashmore, Michele Smith, and Thomas Hunt will perform selections from Gustav Mahler’s Kindertotenlieder (in an arrangement for voice, piano, oboe and horn by R. G. Patterson) and the Jean-Michel Damase Trio for oboe, horn and piano.
Ezmarai Osmany, an Ohio Northern University LLM (Master of Laws) student who also is a former prosecutor in Afghanistan, will have the opportunity to prosecute in the Allen County Prosecutor’s Office after receiving special permission from the Ohio Supreme Court.
Bruce French, ONU professor of law and director of clinical programs, helped spearhead the efforts to have Osmany prosecute cases and said that this is the first time anything like this has been done in the state of Ohio. Traditionally, students must have completed two years of law school in order to get a student license, but a petition to the Ohio Supreme Court granted a license for Osmany.
