Music Education is now more important now than ever!

We are thrilled to present our 2023 Music Education Catalogue, put together specifically for Australian school music and band programs by Musical Merchandisers Pty Ltd, established 1960.

As music teachers, we understand your unique challenges faced in today's music educational landscape, including limited funding, resources or staff, overcrowded classrooms, or the lack of interest from students or parents.

We have always been passionate about the importance of music education in personal and societal development, particularly in the current era of digital distractions. As you would be aware, research has consistently demonstrated time and time again the positive impact music learning has on mental health and well-being, including stress reduction and mood improvement, as well as the promotion of increased self-esteem and the ability to concentrate.

Furthermore, the process of learning an instrument, including practice and dedication, can be highly empowering, leading to a sense of accomplishment and cognitive enhancement. Performing in front of an audience builds confidence and self-assurance. We feel it is our belief and responsibility to provide students with tools to give them access to these benefits and while educators are key in guiding them in their musical development.

Our team of staff share a similar philosophy and dedication. We have a long history of supporting music education initiatives, including sponsoring the NSW School Band Festival, with staff volunteering 2 months of weekends every year for 10 years before COVID times.

We produce a school catalogue every year, this one being the first fully digital version non printed version. Be sure to click through to get extra information on each product. Products featured have been handpicked by our expert staff for Australian schools, and cater for all budgets and school/band program sizes.
