BLACKFOOT – Shelby Murdock smiles as she poses for a photo with an old Bohemian violin. As she holds it out in front of her, she explains that it dates back to the 1700s.
The 28-year-old Shelley woman isn’t sure who originally owned it, but it fills her with excitement to think about who might have played it and the history surrounding it. She marvels that she was able to acquire it and that she’s able to show it to students at her Blackfoot music shop.
It’s just one of several old instruments in Murdock’s collection, which is on display at Snake River Strings Co., a business providing private music lessons at 1010 West Bridge Street. Since launching in 2019, the music shop has taught more than 800 clients throughout Idaho and other states.
If the instrument has a string, Murdock has an instructor who can teach a willing student how to play it. She and her team also provide piano, drum and vocal training.
“We teach all styles of music. I love walking down the halls here because in one room, I’ll hear Vivaldi and in another room, I’ll hear Hank Williams or Led Zeppelin,” Murdock tells EastIdahoNews.com.
