Crehans Violins- Is it true they are closing?

Crehans Violins- Is it true they are closing?

Just heard that Crehans violin shop is going out of business. Big loss to the music community of Dublin, specifically the fiddle players.

That's very surprising - I'd thought they had a good little business there. Sales to classical as much as trad. And a great name for service etc.
Is it a sign of the times - less people playing music for themselves as opposed to buying or downloading it? Or just, maybe less people in Dublin?

I think it's true, though. A friend told me last week that letters had been sent out to customers to give them the news. From what he told me, I think it's a deliberate decision rather than that the business wasn't doing well.

No its not true,Crehans had a stock-clearance sale and were never closing down. Crehans are going stronger than ever so don't believe the rumours. The shop is open tues-Fri 9-5 and Sat 10-5. For directions all you need is to google the shop.
