Looking to Sell

Selling an instrument or bow can be emotional as they hold a special relationship to their owner.

When someone has made the decision to sell, the process should be as comfortable and careful as possible. Though it can take time to find the right match for an instrument, at Elan, we have multiple outlets to pursue in placement of an instrument. Not only do we offer private sales for placement, but we also offer sales through auction. Additionally we have relationships with non- profit organizations that give the gift of music to those in need, providing a wonderful tax-deductible donation option.

Donating Fine Instruments

Donation

Looking to give your instrument new life? Many musicians are not able to afford the instrument they need to advance their studies and careers. Donating your instrument to a talented musician ensures that new generations of artistry will carry forward the tradition of violin making and classical music. There are several options available when it comes to finding the right musician for your gift of music. At Elan, we have relationships with school programs, non-profits specializing in instrument gifts to underprivileged communities, teachers, students and musicians and can help you determine the best placement for your donation.

Artist Placement

There are many gifted artists on the cusp of reaching their star potential, however the opportunity to purchase a special instrument is not within their reach. The right instrument for a musician can make all the difference in their career, helping to spotlight their talent within orchestra auditions, competitions and solo performances. Placing your instrument with a musician keeps the instrument on stage until you are ready to sell.

If you long to have your instrument played once more, we can find the right musician who will bring the most out of the instrument.
