If you are playing percussion in Wind Ensemble or Concert Band, you will need a stick bag with certain mallets and sticks. A list of required sticks is available below. You can purchase these by calling Luscombe Music at 630-833-7381, paying over the phone with credit card, and the mallets will be delivered to Walther.
Downloadable mallet list is available here. »The Walther Grade School Instrumental Program offers a comprehensive music program aimed at developing the whole child. No previous musical experience is required to reap the benefits of this fantastic program. The professionally trained, dedicated teachers in the band, string, and piano programs strive to help every child grow in multiple facets through music.
Students auditioning for String Ensemble will play a short solo demonstrating their technical and musical abilities, and they should be prepared to sight read.

We appreciate your willingness to donate. Currently we have over 150 instruments in our instrument inventory, many of which have been serviced and are in the hands of students. Last year, we had nearly 80 students in our band program using an instrument that was donated. Many of these students would not have been able to participate in band without generous donations from people like you.
To donate, fill out the form below and we will contact you to get your instrument.
