Here are some phone numbers to music companies if you will be purchasing or leasing an instrument:
Flutes, Clarinets, Alto Saxophones, Trumpets, Trombones and
Percussion/Bell Kits can be leased from High
School Music Company. The store
telephone number is 210/349-2775. Rates
and terms can be discussed with them at your convenience. Representatives from High School Music have
agreed to come to Lytle for an “instrument drive” after school on Tuesday, September 8th. At that time, you and your child will have an
opportunity to see the different instruments, ask questions you might have of
the representatives, and if possible, obtain an instrument for your child.
The same instruments are also available from Hillje Music, another good music store
with three locations in San Antonio at 3703 Colony Drive (near IH-10 and
Wurzbach) – store phone number is 210/696-0039, at 11654 Bandera Rd., Suite 109
– store phone number is 210/680-0181, and at 18130 Highway 281 North – Suite
116 – store phone number is 210/545-3131.
Virtually any of these instruments can also be leased from Taylor Music. Although the monthly lease rates are lower
for this company, they are located in South Dakota, so corresponding with them
might be a little more difficult than with High School Music Company or Hillje
Music. The company website is
1800usaband.com. Look for the link for
beginner band instruments.
Please contact me before
ordering an instrument for your child so I can keep track of how many students
are getting each type of instrument.
This is necessary to keep all the sections in the band at the
appropriate size.
Thank you for encouraging your child’s involvement in
music! If you would like to discuss
matters with me over the summer, please feel free to call one of the phone
numbers listed below.
Musically
yours,
MJ
