Fire & Grace to perform across Northeast Ohio
“Music is something that throughout time has developed different flavors around the world,” violinist Edwin Huizinga said during a 2022 telephone conversation. For Huizinga, there are no borders in music. He said that even centuries ago, music was being shared in houses and pubs, for example by the itinerant Irish harpist Turlough O’Carolan.

To the Beat: Bluecoats Drum & Bugle Corps Brings Championship-Winning Performances to Canton
The Canton-based Bluecoats Drum & Bugle Corps has built a dynasty in the world of drum corps — and just won its third Drum Corps International World Championship in August. Having also won the championship in 2016 and 2024, this exciting showcase of pure musical joy has taken The 330 — and parts of the world — by storm. “Since 2014, we’ve come in first, second or third nearly every single year.

Old building demolished on West Hill in Akron
A century-old commercial building is being demolished on West Market Street in Akron. Perhaps your grandparents bought their first automobile there. Maybe you know someone who visited the building to purchase a television console or shag carpet or kitchen cabinet or office furniture or restaurant equipment. Or maybe you’ve passed the place hundreds of times without paying much heed except to admire the “AKRON” mural displayed on the side.

A steady stream of water tamped down the dust while asbestos warning signs were posted around a cordoned-off area. Although work is expected to be completed by Oct. 23, the future of the property has yet to be determined. According to the Summit County Fiscal Office , the building dated back to 1923, but Beacon Journal records indicate that 1928 was the correct year.
