Recommended Music Store List

When getting ready to rent or purchase an instrument or orchestra supply, please use vendors on the recommended vendor list below or any additional vendors recommended to you by your campus orchestra director.

• Denton ISD Orchestra families are not required to rent or purchase an instrument or supplies from specific vendors as a condition of orchestra participation. However, it is HIGHLY recommended to use vendors on the district approved vendor list to ensure that the student receives an instrument and supplies of acceptable quality. This helps ensure their progress and enjoyment in our orchestra programs. 

• The vendors listed have been approved and recommended by your Denton ISD orchestra directors based on overall experiences of the vendors' products and services. However, the directors, district fine arts staff and the district assume no liability in the event of a negative experience or dispute involving the parent and the private music vendor of their choice.

• Some instruments purchased from less-reputable dealers online will require professional assembly (this is not always clear in the item description) and result in a parent paying additional cost to have the instrument set up properly at a professional repair shop. Please be aware that for financial liability purposes, your orchestra director might not be able to assemble or perform repairs for you on an instrument that you own.
