Vincent Marinelli is the founder of Expert Woodwind Service, a music store specializing in hand-selected and expertly fine-tuned professional clarinets and saxophones. A musician himself, Vincent mainly plays the clarinet, flute and saxophone, the latter of which he played in a rock and roll band in the early part of his career. Inspired by his own band director in school, Vincent studied and taught music, which he enjoyed very much. While teaching he saw the need for instrument repairs as well as a local source to purchase accessories and quality instruments, which led him to open his store in 1993. In addition to teaching, repairing, selling and playing, Vincent is a strong supporter of the arts within the Delaware area.
