🎷 Tenor sax doesn’t need you to handle it roughly to make it soulful.

Want a bigger, richer sound?

Before tightening your jaw or biting harder, think about your air.

A relaxed embouchure with strong, supported airflow gives you much more room to shape the sound.

Let that tenor breathe. 🎶

🎺 The trombone: because sometimes music needs a SLIDE.

There’s just something fun about an instrument where finding the right note involves moving half the instrument around. 😄

If your student is headed for the low brass section this year, trombone rentals at Instrumental Music Center are $20–$25/month.

It’s an affordable way to let them learn, experiment, make some questionable noises at first, and eventually discover just how awesome a trombone can sound. 🎶

We’re a local Tucson shop, and when the inevitable bumps and stuck slides happen, our repair team is right here too. 🌵🔧

Start your rental at imc-az.com and we’ll call when your trombone is ready for pickup.

Long live the slide. 🎺↔️

🔔 Ding ding ding — somebody joined percussion.

If “bell kit” just appeared on your kid’s school supply list, don’t worry. We speak band. 😄

Instrumental Music Center rents bell kits for $10–$20/month, so your future percussionist can get started without your family having to commit to buying a whole setup.

And percussion is a pretty great place to start — rhythm, melody, coordination, and eventually the opportunity to hit a LOT more things. 🥁

We’re local, we’re here in Tucson, and we’ve been helping families navigate school music since 1999. 🌵

Start your rental at imc-az.com and we’ll call when your kit is ready for pickup.

Go forth and make some noise. 🔔🥁🎶

If flute is the one they picked this year, we can help get one in their hands without a big upfront purchase.

Flute rentals at Instrumental Music Center are $20–$25/month.

We’re a Tucson shop, our repairs happen right here in-house, and if you have questions along the way, you can actually come in and talk to us. 🌵🎶

Start your rental at imc-az.com and we’ll give you a call when your flute is ready for pickup.

Now brace yourself for a few enthusiastic high notes around the house. 😄
