Mel Schiff and his wife Sally established All County Music in Tamarac, Florida.  The first store opened in 1976 with a strong focus on band and orchestra music and repair.  However, Mel’s introduction into the industry began when his father established The Schiff School of Music in Brooklyn, New York.  Mel played a vital role there as a trumpet and accordion teacher.  After his father passed away, Mel moved to Florida where Mel and his wife opened their music store with a focus on school music programs. Their son Fred runs the store today and continues the traditions his parents established.
