Stanton’s Sheet Music has long been known for its excellent service and knowledgeable staff, many of whom are former educa-tors, who are eager to assist you. The new features, tools, and en-hancements that we have added to our website are designed to help you have an even more suc-cessful teaching experience.

The world is getting smarter and moving faster - at least, our phones are - and in order to keep up with the growing number of customers using smart phones, Stanton’s knew that we needed to adapt our site to be user-friendly on the “small screen.” The new Mobile Website doesn’t need to be zoomed in - it’s designed to fit within your phone’s screen size - and it breaks down categories with a simplified structure that is easier to navigate with your fingers. Your smart phone becomes your mp3 player for our thousands of music sound files, so you’ll be able to listen to something new from our mobile website anywhere you are!
