Music & Arts — Longview

The Longview Music & Arts store in Longview Towne Crossing on North Eastman Road is where a lot of East Texas band and orchestra students get their start. The location offers private music lessons, instrument sales, rentals, and repairs, and new students can book a free trial lesson before committing to anything. The teaching roster covers a wide spread of instruments, including guitar, piano, flute, saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, violin, cello, viola, bass guitar, mandolin, ukulele, drums, voice, and music theory. Several instructors hold music education degrees from Texas universities. Rentals cover band and orchestra instruments with flexible terms, free returns, and free upsizes as a kid grows, and only a valid ID and a card are needed to start. The store is open seven days a week.
