Instruments
CAUTION - Do not purchase instruments on the internet, Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, Sears, etc., since we find they are generally inferior instruments. If in doubt, call our office or check with your band director. Area repair shops will not even look at these instruments for repair.
In order to provide quality instruments at the lowest possible prices, our program works exclusively with a local music instrument dealer.

The company's name is P.M. Music Center, located in Aurora. You may call them at (630)-978-4756 and they will provide you with all the information that you will need in the event that you wish to rent or purchase a musical instrument. Please mention that you are with Music on the Move.
