Step-Up School Event

Many schools that work with Meyer Music have an annual Step-Up instrument event. Contact your teacher to see if there’s an event planned for your student’s classroom.

At-School Individual Trial

If your school doesn’t have a Step-Up event, we can arrange for a Step-Up instrument to be sent to your school for your student to try.

Please complete the following form and a Meyer team member will contact you to make further arrangements.
