Time: 5:30 PM This presentation tells the story of three young orphaned brothers from New York who followed their older sister to Adrian, Michigan in 1867. With no plans for the future, they sold sewing machines and other household items to earn money. In 1879 they changed their focus and founded the music house, moved to Detroit, and eventually opened 43 branch stores in Michigan (including Wyandotte and Lincoln Park), Ohio, and Windsor, Ontario. By the 1950s they became the largest music company in the world. This program details the evolution of musical instruments, gramophone-to-record players, guitars and mandolins. and popular music. “Everything in the Realm of Music” was their mantra. A few music selections will be heard. Books will be available for sale.
