Music specialized in pianos, accordians, guitars and even new
fangled technological equipment known as stereos. It has been
said that the real trick to operating the business was hauling
the pianos up and down the stairs.
Lynn
and Jane Marquart purchased the business from the Greens in
1956 and the store changed locations several times before settling
in Brookwood Shopping Center.
Under
the Marquarts, the emphasis of the music store changed to band
and orchestral instruments along with a few guitars. They also
offered private lessons and a repair shop.
Clifford
and Rebecca Manning purchased the store from the Marquarts in
1986, expanding the repair shop and broadening the instrument
lines offered through the store.
Becky
managed Manning Music and moved it to its current location at
1907 SW Gage Blvd. Todd and Deb Manning purchased the store
10 years later and have continued to expand the store, emphasizing
honest, personal service.
