Actor Rich Sommer ~ North Dakota-Inspired Compositions

Tuesday, March 20 – Rich Sommer grew up in Minnesota, went to Concordia College in Moorhead, starred in the hit TV show Mad Men, and now he’s coming for the Fargo Film Festival for the screening of “A Crooked Somebody,” in which he plays Michael Vaughn, a self-professed psychic who gets himself into a world of trouble. ~~~ Meet cellist Diego Rodriguez, acclaimed performer, conductor and educator. Originally from Venezuela he’s currently studying and teaching at UND. On April 6th, he’ll perform music written entirely by North Dakotan and inspired by North Dakota. Also joining us is one of the composers, Matthew Lorenz. He grew up in Fargo, is a classically trained pianist, and “a growing artistic presence in the Grand Forks community and the Midwest at large.”
