Piano Store Closed
Thanks for 18 Years, Chicagoland
Our final day was Sat, Jan 18! It was an honor serving Chicagoland for so long. Making music matters.
Why We closed
We held on for a long time, and we exhausted all other options. Unfortunately, due mostly to a shrinking market, we shut down our doors forever in January 2025.

Focus on Education
We loved teaching customers about pianos. There's lots to learn so keep asking questions and stay curious.
Play, Play, Play
It's important to play as many pianos as you can to better understand what you like—and what you don't!
Find a Trusted Technician
You'll need your piano serviced at some point. Find a reputable tech early on. It's even a great idea to have them look at any piano before you buy it.
