Mission StatementDelian Music has been in the local area for more than 40 years and is family owned and operated. We pride ourselves on offering old-fashioned service and cater to the beginning musician as well as the intermediate and advanced music student. We are committed to the belief that “MUSIC EDUCATION MAKES THE DIFFERENCE.” Learning a musical instrument fosters creativity, teaches effective communication skills and encourages the abiding values of self-discipline, self-discovery and self-expression. Music lessons also increase spatial and cognitive abilities in children which helps them in Math and Science. Numerous studies have shown that learning a musical instrument also staves off the progression of Alzheimer's. We are proud to offer an environment dedicated to this endeavor. In addition to teaching music lessons, we offer:

“Delian Music Caters to the Beginning Music Student” After being in the music retail business for so many years (since 1947), Delian Music pretty much takes the guess work out of first-time buyers of musical instruments. When customers come to Delian to sign up for music lessons, they also need a good inexpensive entry-level instrument so they can practice their lessons. Instead of having every major brand name under the sun for every wallet and level of player, Delian offers just one or two models of the BEST of what they consider good entry level instruments because they cater to the beginner. Delian does not sell the most expensive nor the least expensive instruments. For example, they sell one model of a classical nylon-stringed guitar for, one steel stringed acoustic guitar for adults for $129.00 and ¾, ½ and 5/8 size guitars for children and/or small women starting at $39.95and cases to match. They also offer a 5 piece drum set complete with all of the hardware, cymbals, stands¸ throne and sticks for $599.99 which is an incredible deal – or a snare drum kit which includes the snare drum, stand, sticks, carrying bag and practice pad complete for only $129.95. “The last thing a person needs is to be confused about a beginning first-time instrument. This is where my almost 30 years of being in this business pays off,” says Candace Blankenship. “You can use my expertise and years of shopping for music instruments. Even though our instruments are entry level, you would still be proud to own one for years to come.” Delian Music is not a catalog company and they aren’t a music mega-store. Delian Music is a small neighborhood store that concentrate their efforts on first time music instrument buyers and students. Delian Music is one of the very few music stores that rents almost every instrument that it sells. Some rental does apply to the purchase price which is a great incentive. It also allows you to get the instrument, try it out and see if you even want to purchase it. Another good option for beginners who can’t make up their minds about what instrument to learn is to sign up for either four or twelve lessons and split the lessons among different instruments. This also works for parents who want their children to take one instrument and the child wishes to learn another instrument. This is where a compromise makes both the parent and the child happy. In addition, we have a great drum accessory department, including many styles of drum sticks, mallets, brushes, drum heads, tambourines, latin percussion accessories – afuches, cabasas, claves, maracas, bongos, drumheads, bell kits, and snare kits. Other items include band instrument accessories and microphone accessories and a good selection of different styles of music stands. We also carry ukuleles- soprano and baritone-mandolins, many kinds of recorders, guitar and bass strings, guitar cables, cases, straps and stands. We have every size of violins and violas –from ¼ to 4/4 size- cellos and all of the string instrument accessories. Band instruments include new and used flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets and trombones. Contact us for more information. |
