Our Story
Sharing the passion of music making
In 1999, a music teacher, Queensland Conservatorium Graduate, established a music teaching academy on Brisbane’s southside. From this idea Vivace Music was born. We opened to the public as an 8 studio Musical Education Centre in Sunnybank Hills. Through our students we began to appreciate the need for quality and reasonably priced instruments. In 2001, this music studio expanded and began to sell pianos, keyboards, string instruments and print music. Over the years, the store has grown to become a truly “one stop music shop” as Vivace Music’s first instrumental store, providing a wide & diverse range of musical instruments and equipment as well as instrument repair and services.
With our first store open in Sunnybank Hills, in 2014 we saw the need for a dedicated large piano showroom in Brisbane, Vivace Music then launched our 2nd store in MacGregor for our piano customers. In 2015, our 3rd store was opened at Sunnybank Plaza Shopping Centre as Brisbane’s largest musical home for instruments including Guitars, Drums, Audio Tech, Amplifies, PA, Keyboard and more. This 3rd store soon moved to Compton Road, Underwood in 2018 providing our customers with an even better shopping environment. All of our 3 stores are located in stand alone commercial buildings with plenty of car parking available for our customers.
Underwood Store
In 2018, Vivace Music relocated our biggest musical instrument showroom in Queensland from Sunnybank Plaza Shopping Centre to Underwood with large selection of display stock of instruments including Guitars, Drums, Amplifications, PA Systems, Keyboards, Pianos, and String and Band Instruments. This Underwood store is also the home for YAMAHA PIANOS. All our staff here are professional musicians with professional product knowledge as Vivace Music aims to provide the best possible service and shop experience to our customers.
MacGregor Store
Vivace Piano & Strings in MacGregor, opened in 2014 as one of the largest piano showrooms in Australia. We stock a wide range of pianos including KAWAI, FAZIOLI, and over 100 preloved grands and uprights as well as Yamaha, Roland, and Kawai Digital Pianos. Not only that, Vivace Pianos & Strings has an elegant on-site auditorium with a 100 seat capacity available for concerts and workshops.
Sunnybank Hills Store
Our first store is located on a main road on the southside of Brisbane, only 15min drive from the Brisbane CBD, with 2-level showroom areas. Our ground floor showroom is dedicated to our piano department. Our upper floor provides a home for our digital piano, keyboard, guitar, drum, string, woodwind and brass and print music. Here, our on-site music school offers music lessons for various instruments from the age of 4 to adults – beginner to advanced.
