With his concert schedule cancelled indefinitely by the COVID pandemic, violinist Yevgeny Kutik was practicing alone in his home studio, when his eye fell upon a stack of old music scores on a shelf. The scores had been packed by his mother in one of only two pieces of luggage the family was allowed to bring out of Belarus in the former Soviet Union when they emigrated to the United States in 1990, a year before the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. Kutik’s mother devoted precious luggage space to the music because she believed that it represented a significant part of the family history.

A Grade II listed cottage in the grounds of Lord Byron s ancestral home is for sale for £500,000.
The three-bedroom cottage has its own tower and is part of a larger property that is set in the sprawling grounds of Newstead Abbey, in Nottinghamshire.
Newstead Abbey was once home to the famous poet, who became an overnight star due to his poem Childe Harold s Pilgrimage and is famous for also writing the long narrative poem Don Juan.
The cottage for sale is called The Archway, and forms the front end of the property - pictured - that includes the arch and tower.
