Fiona became an integral part taking care of bookeeping and now arranging freight and being the Print Music Manager.

The shop eventually turned its focus to high quality instrument sales thus enhancing the requirement for high quality repairs.

We are the proud importers and dealers of prestigious brands including Selmer Paris, Marigaux, Besson, Buffet Crampon, Bach, Yamaha, Schagerl and many other brands.

Another important aspect to Simon and Fiona is the historical instrument collection. Many customers have come in to enjoy just looking at instruments dating from as early as the 1700’s and encompassing piccolos to tubas.
