High School Music Service was established in San Antonio, Texas by Lloyd Reitz in 1946. It began as a retail music store specializing in band instruments, accessories, and repairs with a focus on school music programs in the San Antonio area, the Hill Country, and South Texas down to the Rio Grande Valley. Don Watkins took the helm in 1980, followed by his son Greg in 1997 who runs it to this day. Our focus at High School Music has always been putting the customer and their needs first. Whether you are a first time band parent or a band director, a seasoned pro or just starting out, we believe in providing the very best experience to everyone that trusts us with their business.
