Musical weekend

It was a weekend of music as the Summer Gospel Concert (right) took place on Saturday in the Gospel Pavilion on the Van Wert County Fairgrounds, while Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 (left) was performed by the Fort Wayne Philharmonic Orchestra, with the addition of a chorus and soloists, at the Niswonger Performing Arts Center of Northwest Ohio.
