Tuesday Musical enriches the cultural life of Greater Akron and Northeast Ohio by connecting today’s exceptional performers with audiences, students, and members in powerful ways and by advancing the positive power of music in our community.
This is achieved through distinctive, appealing, and accessible performances; dynamic collaborations with our community; meaningful education programs; and an engaged membership that pays tribute to our legacy as a grassroots organization created by and for music lovers.
In all that we do, Tuesday Musical provides children and adults with opportunities to experience excellent live music — thus engaging current and new generations of music lovers.
Begun in 1887 in Akron and operating as a non-profit ever since, Tuesday Musical is the only organization in Summit County presenting a comprehensive, year-round classical music series featuring world-acclaimed musicians in tandem with meaningful education and community engagement activities.
We do this throughout schools and the community with:
- World-class concerts and performances.
- Teaching residencies.
- Decompression Chamber series in high-stress workplaces and other venues.
- Masterclasses with celebrated, professional musicians who teach and inspire.
- Open rehearsals, lectures and Q&A sessions.
- Concert talks by music scholars and interviews with performing musicians.
- Free tickets for all students — the only organization offering this in Summit County and perhaps NE Ohio!
- Bus underwriting for school districts and student organizations.
- Scholarships for college students pursuing careers in music performance and/or music education.
- Brahms Allegro Junior Music Club for students in grades 1-12.
