Music & Arts embodies the world of creativity and music by encouraging teammates to find their own individual sound. Founded in 1952 by Benjamin O'Brien in a small house in Bethesda, MD, the company began offering printed music, lessons, and art supplies before quickly focusing on music to better serve customers. Since the 1990s, Music & Arts has expanded nationwide through organic growth and acquisitions, joining forces with American Music in 2005 to become the largest band and orchestra instrument retailer in the United States. Today, based in Frederick, MD, and part of the Guitar Center enterprise, the company operates over 225 retail stores and 200+ educational representatives.
