"While the company's leadership is changing, our values and focus will remain the same," said Peter Schmitt in a letter to employees. "At its core, Schmitt Music is about more than simply selling instruments and lessons. It is about making connections—with each other and with our customers. It is about our people, the programs we offer, and how we participate in the communities we serve. I am humbled by the chance to carry forward the time-honored, customer-focused practices that have made Schmitt Music an industry leader for over a century.”
