THE Musicroom retail store in Rother Street, Stratford is to close on 31st March.
Hal Leonard Europe, the leading sheet music publisher and distributor which owns the shop, has confirmed that the Stratford store and six other outlets throughout the country will cease trading at the end of the month, with the business increasing its focus on the growth of its Musicroom.com e-commerce channel.
The other shops to be closed are in Edinburgh, Exeter, Lincoln, Salisbury and York, along with the Musicroom concession in the Dublin music store, McCullough Pigott.
In a statement the company said that its flagship store on London’s Denmark Street will remain open, “maintaining a high street presence in the most iconic music retail location in the UK, and integrating with Musicroom.com, the UK and Europe’s leading sheet music specialist online store”.
The statement added: “Through its London flagship and fast-growing e-commerce stores, Musicroom will continue to provide customers with the best tools and resources for learning, teaching, creating and making music – from the largest print and digital sheet music selection available, to an extensive array of instruments, accessories, pro audio and technology products as well as gifts and vinyl records.”
A special in-store promotion has been launched in all Musicroom locations, with offers across a huge range of products from leading brands. The promotion will end on 31st March, when the seven stores cease trading.
