Step Up Flute

There comes a time in every young musicians journey when they need a higher quality musical instrument. Higher quality instruments will have features that allow your child to make a better sound (we call that ‘tone’) and play more difficult passages of music (or ‘touch’). Our Step Up Instrument program is Rent-to-Own and lets you build equity toward your instruments purchase while progressing through higher quality instruments along the way. All of our instruments are from reputable manufacturers and have been selected by your band director. Have questions about beginner instrument rentals? Feel free to contact your local Playground Music Center location or check out our Step Up FAQs.
