My niece from NYC recently visited my 91 yo Mother here in Edmonton. She has recently graduated from Juilliard School of Music in New York and she plays cello. The Tan Violin Shop was exceptionally helpful and accommodating to have her come in and try out different cellos to rent for the weekend. She thoroughly enjoyed playing for my Mother at her seniors lodge in Edmonton and for all the extended relatives separately in our home. This would not have been possible without the assistance of Mr. Tan and his flexibility of timing and return of the cello. Many thanks from the entire Edwards family.

I have been renting from Tan Violin Shop for over 25 years! They have always provided reasonable rates and are the only place where all serious violinists go for violin sales, rentals, repair, and advice.

Tan's is THE place to go for expert repairs and honest advice. Offers a friendly low pressure environment to newbie string players and seasoned pros alike.Edit: I recently brought my bass back in for yet another repair (different issue and totally my fault - Eric's first repair remains very stable). I needed the instrument back quickly for a gig, and Eric was very obliging and accommodating. I got my instrument back in record time and at a very reasonable price. I would have been hooped if not for Tans Violins!
