| Nazareth Music Center A Family Business Serving Your Musical Needs |
Since grade school and up to his service in
the Army, Ralph Brodt Jr. always
understood the importance of music and
the enrichment it brought into his life and
others’. In 1957, Ralph decided to teach
private lessons at a local music store called
Zellner’s Music. After several years, the
Zellner’s affinity for Ralph grew. They
respected his love of music, hard work—
and most notably—pleasant demeanor.
Ralph enjoyed working at the store so
much that he and his wife Edith purchased
it in 1960.

Ralph, Edith, and their four children all shared the notion that music
enriched their lives and wanted the business to reflect that ideal. Ralph

Within the past 25 years, the Brodt family expanded their store
immensely. What was once a small store front and a quaint home now
extends half a block long and towers four stories high. However, the
feeling of a “Mom-and-Pop” store still exists.
