This week we remember. We will be closed on Wednesday, November 11, 2020. In the first comment on this post, we have included a copy of the music to the Last Post, which is a very common request this time of year. This way you can save it and have it ready to go for whatever socially distanced celebration you have planned to honour our veterans this year.... Lest we forget.

Although they are sure to be different this year, Christmas concerts will still be happening for some community and school band programs. We've got all of our Christmas music out on the floor now for easy browsing. Lots of variety in stock for Concert Band, in addition to solo books and mix & match ensemble books. We are open our normal store hours - Monday to Saturday 9-5:30, but are taking Covid-19 related precautions. Masks are mandatory and social distancing is being pr...acticed, so you may have to wait a moment to enter the store if we are finishing up with other customers. Thank you for your patience, we look forward to seeing you! We hope you will stop by to say hi and to peruse the Christmas tunes.

We hope you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving weekend!

Some school band programs are being allowed to re-open as long as specific Covid-19 related precautions are in place for the students and staff. Bell covers are one of the recommended tools to help minimize the chance of germs being spread throughout the classroom. We are currently sourcing bell covers from 3 different suppliers, each offering different styles and sizes. Contact us for more information on availability or to place your special order. Stay safe and well!
