We are so excited to have you as part of our Brunswick Orchestra Family!
Mrs. Erdman will provide rental flyers to you during the first week of school, it will also be included in the first newsletter. Rettig Music and Royalton Music Center are our preferred rental locations
Rental information
Rent an instrument. String instruments come in smaller sizes and grow with your student, so renting is preferred over purchase.
Be cautious about "cheap" online instruments and contact a director first.
Cellos and basses rent an instrument for home and will rent use a school instrument at school.
Students will be sized in the first few class or they can be sized for the correct instrument at the music store.
6th Grade students will need to have their instruments by Tuesday, September 9
Please contact Mrs. Erdman with any questions at serdman@bcsoh.org
We are looking forward to a great year of music-making!
