Fine-tuning teeth by day, a violin at night

(Oct. 6, 2011)   —   The ECU School of Dental Medicine's Dr. Waldemar de Rijk will play in an orchestra concert Oct. 11


When the Pitt Community College Symphony Orchestra takes the stage for its fall concert next week, there with his violin will be one of East Carolina University's newest faculty members: Dr. Waldemar de Rijk.

"When you're sitting in the orchestra, it's the best stereo you can have," de Rijk, a clinical associate professor at the School of Dental Medicine, said recently. "You're hearing all the parts."
