Christmas at the Musicroom
Music has always been a big part of my life, before I could talk my Mum took me to babies singing sessions and as I got older I learnt to play a few instruments including the violin and guitar, sadly when I became ill in my teens I gave up playing the violin and I wonder these days if I would even remember much about how to play one.
Looking back I remember the excitement of picking out my own instrument, the guitar was an easier pick as we just visited a store in Oxford, but the violin took us a long time. In the end we visited a restorer and ended up purchasing one from him as he let us try and browser through his wonderful work, offering honest advice on what would be best for a novice like me. It’s odd to think that online shopping for them wouldn’t have been an option we even thought of; how quickly technology has progressed.
If you are looking to treat a friend or family member to something musical this year, then the Musicroom have such a fun way to try and match you to the perfect gift in the form of the gift amp. This clever gift finder is made so you turn the dials to set the category / instrument and price range you are looking for then you just need to hit ‘play’ for it to pop up with all manner of great gift ideas.
One of the great things about the Musicroom is the huge choice of music related items they have on offer, you can find yourself browsing through 100’s of different sheets of music one moment, only to be looking at instruments the next. Of course it isn’t just for those who play, the have a range of headphones for those who love to listen as well as small gift ideas such as toilet paper covered in musical notes, musical bottle openers and jewellery to name just a few things for those lovers of listening to music.
I know I’ll be twisting the dials and hoping to come up with some good ideas for certain people.
What do you think of the sounds of the Musicroom’s amp gift finder, is it something that could be useful this Christmas for you?
My husband is a musician. I’m pretty sure he’s going to love this.
As a piano teacher – I am already a customer of Musicroom and find them very good.
Believe it or not. During Christmas and New year we tend to spend so much time at the music room – well to be specific music/theatre room.
The gift amp sounds really cool. I remember playing the violin at school too. I actually got to my stage 3 exam but then it went by the wayside.
This sounds great, my 2 daughters love all kind of music and instruments.
Musicroom is great – I just ordered myself some vocal sheet music from them.
I know tons of music lovers in my life, this sounds amazing!
What a clever idea. We don’t really play any instruments. But I could see this being a really useful resource for so many people.
I love music! This is a great idea.
I love what a unique gift this is. I know a few family members that would flip for this!
just wowww, i will love to have something like that! <3
I love that it helps you find a great gift idea. Sometimes it’s hard to think of something!
What a great idea for music lovers. Everyone in my household loves music!!
My husband just asked me for a keyboard for Christmas. Says he wants to learn to play. This is very timely. I will have to take a look around and see what they have.
What a unique gift idea. It covers a broad range of recipients too.
This sounds like fun way to find gifts for the music lovers in my life. I’ll definitely be checking it out.
Thanks for a very informative article I had never heard of The Musicroom before
This is so useful. I know a lot of music lovers!
My art sadly does not come in the form of music. I do encourage it so the little one in my family all get instruments from me
We have a few music lovers on our Christmas list. I think I need to check them out asap!
My brother has two music degrees and is a professional musician. I bet he’d love this!
Sounds great! I don’t listen to music often unless it’s kids music but my brother is in a band so this would be cool!
It sounds like they have all sorts of great gift ideas for music lovers. I should check there for my brother, who is a drummer 🙂
It’s never too late to learn (or re learn)
