Take the number of piano and violin students in this city seriously and the category makes sense. Richmond supports a dense network of music teaching, and the shops follow it: sheet music, method books, strings, reeds, rentals, tuning and repair. Several Golden Village units combine retail with teaching studios upstairs.
The other half is band and stage gear: guitars, amplifiers, drums, keyboards, PA systems and rehearsal-room rentals, mostly in the plazas and the light-industrial pockets where noise is not a problem. DJ and recording equipment specialists sit closer to City Centre. Listings show hours, and note where lessons or instrument repair are offered alongside sales.
