Carere Music was founded in 1989 by Tony and Karen Carere and has been in continuous operation since that time. T he Carere family has been making music for many generations: Tony's brothers and sister all played, nieces, nephews, etc. As Tony spent his working years as the top-call woodwind doubler, he started buying and selling instruments. After doing this for some time, it was suggested that he practice officially in a business setting. Tony and Karen set out to provide a greater knowledge of what they knew best, woodwinds. Tony has also maintained being the musicians contractor in Atlanta for Theater of the stars. Carere Music, Inc. has grown into a major player in Atlanta's retail instrument market. From the beginning, we have offered quality music products, instrument sales, private lessons, instrument repair and great customer service with a sales staff that are uniquely knowledgeable and experienced in music education and performance. Come by and meet the family!
