Brass and Woodwind Shop, 184 Kingsley Rd, Burnt Hills, NY 12027, US

HistoryIn 1930, a young John Keal opened his first music store at 315 Central Avenue in Albany. A 24-year-old musician, his beginning ambition was only to teach saxophone in a private studio. However, he soon became a supplier of reeds and other accessories for his fellow musicians. Eventually, this led him to establish contacts with the instrument manufacturers of the day and he became a source for band and orchestral instruments as well. Almost by accident, John Keal had discovered a local music market, and the increasing demand soon prompted him to put aside his teaching and concentrate his efforts solely on the business of music.SpecialtiesWe specialize in New and Used Band and Orchestra instrument sales, rentals and service.
