Betty Kline was getting a little tired of running to town for band accessories when her husband, a music director, needed something for his students.  What started out being a large box of accessories in her home developed into some of the key band and orchestra music stores in the Sacramento area!  She worked long and hard at building the business, which today includes her two daughters and several grandchildren!  “I am proud of what I was able to do because it helps my family.”  Betty and her daughter Penny were interviewed for the NAMM Oral History program on the heels of the store’s 50th anniversary.
