I've finally I've been able to visit the Shedd. Well, that's a little incorrect; they were around…read morewhen I was in middle and high school, but as a summer program or resident company at the Hult Center known as OFAM, the Oregon Festival of American Music. Until this past weekend, I hadn't been to a program at their own year-round space that's been here for 25 years or so now. (But I don't feel too bad about that since my sister, who's lived here all her life, has only been once.) Anyway, I brought my toddler to their Magical Moombah show, which is designed specifically for children. We had a lot of fun! It was held in the Jacqua concert hall. The show was kind of variety/vaudeville in style; this one was called Come Sail Away, and it had a loose story made up that was connected by pre-existing songs that matched the theme. There were several time when they invited the kids up to participate--a dance party on stage, a couple of joke breaks, a contest or two, and more. It was a great way to let the kids be involved, and even the littlest kids had an opportunity to join in (my two year old was insistent on making her stage debut, though I think she was a bit shy when she was up there dancing with everyone). They hold this program each quarter and I'll definitely be looking for it next time we're home to visit. They also host concerts, musicals, and other programming. There are a couple of performance spaces, the concert hall being the main one and then recital space. The Shedd is also home to a music school, which seems to take place in the newer wing, where students can take private or group lessons. I will say that their website is really frustrating--almost every link would take me to their calendar, even if I was clicking on Faculty or Welcome--so I'm not sure what that's about so I'd suggest just calling if you have questions. There's a fee if you purchase tickets online (and maybe if you purchase in person with a credit card); in person with cash there's no fee. They have a good parking arrangement with the city that allows for free parking on evenings and weekends in the Lane County lot. There's also parking directly behind their north entrance (I'm not sure if that's the city lot or not, but I don't think so). The lot we parked in was kind of frustrating because almost every spot was marked as compact, and in the year 2026 even in Eugene most people have an SUV or minivan or something, and places just need to stop making most of their parking for compact cars. Some fun facts: Ginevra Ralph, who co-founded the Shedd, is the great-granddaughter of John G. Shedd (namesake of Chicago's Shedd Aquarium in addition to this performing arts center). The Shedd is located in what was once the First Baptist Church in Eugene, one of the largest in the city if not the largest at the time. Also, Marin Alsop, a conductor of international renown, was the co-conducted the Eugene Symphony and the Oregon Festival of American Music early in her career. The Shedd really does have a storied history and lots of great things to come.

I appreciate that the staff is not pushy in the slightest, and they seem to respect the relationship between a musician and and their need to fit the instrument that suites them best, which sometimes takes time and trying many different instruments side by side. Also feel that they've been quite fair and reasonable with making deals on trade-ins. Much more so than a corporate music store like Guitar Center. Grateful to have a quality local owned music shop!

The younger guy very stiffly said he couldn't say either way on what book would include what. I asked if he could look through them and help me determine but he shrugged and said he really couldn't say... while the older guy, who likely runs the shop, stood behind him. Quietly watching our interaction, so it felt like I was just being told a scripted answer. It was the weirdest thing for a retail worker to absolutely refuse to help like that. Like others, when shopping, all they do is stand quietly behind the counter unless the older man is on the phone. He also couldn't give me advice on what to choose, as if he didn't want to sway me not to buy something and to get something else. When I asked if he could show me a certain section, he seemed put off by having to walk around the counter to show me, as if I should know where everything is already. I also wanted to get something they had behind the counter, which was just a small and cheap piece, but despite having to look around the store still for the books, he refused to allow me to carry it around and had to keep it at the counter. Like I'm going to run out of the store for an item that is only a few dollars. I think their books are also overpriced. If they are "like new" they are still used, so shouldn't be sold for the price printed on the back of the book. Unless it's a very rare book to find or something. And if they have things written all in them, they shouldn't be almost the same price but only a few dollars off or whatever. A normally $25 book they marked down to $20 because it did have writing all over it, but it rendered it kind of useless if you are wanting to learn it on your own without answers written in. I also experienced a kind of awkward rudeness from the older man, like others have. I probably will not be returning to them since there are other places with competitive pricing and better customer service. I also witnessed the older man on the phone with a few people in a row and was rude to each of them and acted accusatory that what they were selling he couldn't prove was "legit" what they were claiming it was... yes, that is why you do research on a product once they bring it in. Instead of mistrusting someone on the phone before meeting them in person. It helps if you're already well-acquainted with antiques. Why offer to buy an antique instrument off someone if you aren't going to believe it's real? I don't know, it's just not the best environment in my opinion...

Even more amazing, I've only had to replace the main circuit board once, after an unexpected power outage caused some of the buttons to suddenly stop responding.
