Found sheet music in Cincinnati
I was leaving the entrance of the Cincinnati Music Hall on Central Parkway around 7:10 PM yesterday and spotted a folder of sheet music lying on the sidewalk, still warm from the sun. It’s a mixed bundle: pages of Bach and Chopin with pencil annotations and a few rosin dust specks on the cover. I picked it up and looked for a name, but there wasn’t anything obvious—just a damp page and a stubborn scribble on the corner. It felt like it belonged to someone who practices late into the evening, so I’m posting this to help it find its way home.
Silver Ludwig snare with blue star sticker
I lost my Ludwig 14x6.5 inch snare drum yesterday around 3pm. I was at Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati, near the 4th & Vine area after a quick practice break. It’s a silver satin finish with a blue star sticker on the Ludwig badge, and there’s a tiny dent on the outer rim from a gig last month. This drum is my main practice snare and it has sentimental value because it was a gift from my grandfather. If someone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; I can describe more details if needed.
Cremona 4/4 violin in black case
I lost my Cremona 4/4 violin yesterday around 3pm near Findlay Market on Elder Street in Cincinnati. It's a warm brown varnish with a few tiny scratches on the lower bout and a small chip at the scroll; the ebony chin rest and the pearl-like tuners catch the light. The violin lives in a black hard-shell case with a red velvet interior, and there's a purple star sticker on the inside of the lid—easy to spot if you peek. This instrument is sentimental; it was a gift from my grandmother, and I really need it back. If found, please contact me—I'd be incredibly grateful.
Red Yamaha snare drum with drumsticks
I lost my red Yamaha snare drum, a 14-inch shell, yesterday around 3pm near Findlay Market on Race Street in Cincinnati. It's in decent shape with chrome hardware and a couple of small dents along the rim from last season's gigs. I black-markered my initials 'AP' on the shell and there's a faded Cincinnati Jazz Fest sticker on the inside rim—little clues to help ID. This drum means a lot to me because it was a gift from my grandpa, and I really need it back for upcoming band practice.
Found silver trumpet with dent near Fountain Square
I found a silver trumpet this afternoon around 4:15pm near Fountain Square, at the intersection of Vine Street and 4th Street in Cincinnati. It's a standard Bb trumpet with a dent in the bell and a small red CMA sticker on the bell flare. The mouthpiece is engraved with the initials 'R.S.' and the black case has a green lining with a few scratches. If this belongs to you, reach out and we can arrange a pickup; I know how much something like this can mean to a player.
Found an intricately designed hand drum with colorful patterns near Fountain Square, Cincinnati.
I found a hand drum, intricately designed with colorful patterns on it, while walking near Fountain Square in downtown Cincinnati last weekend. It looks like it has seen some use, and I believe someone must be missing it or it might have slipped out of a bag. If you can provide details about the drum, I'd love to get it back to its rightful owner.
