Music fans across Nottingham are delighted after it was announced that a historic music shop based in the city centre is set to be saved after its previous owners announced their retirement. David Oldershaw and Margaret Frogson appealed to potential buyers to save the Windblowers store on Derby Road from closure earlier this year.
Luckily two new owners have decided to take on the store which will open in a new location in the Beeston Technology Drive in Unit 29. Co-owners and musicians Richard Cox and James Beard decided to save the historic shop and workshop. The new shop opened to the public on December 1.
"I'm a musician and I run a business, Europa Records that sells classical recordings. I've done this for the past 20 years and I've known Windblowers since I came to Nottingham as a student as I used to go there and buy sheet music," Richard said.
