Richmond BizSense’s Charlotte Mallory reports on the closure of Kapeller Violins, which has sold and serviced stringed instruments for thousands of Richmond area musicians since Stephen Kapeller opened the shop in 1978. It will close at the end of July.
His wife, Jane Kapeller, has run the business in recent years as her husband’s health declined.
Brittany Leaper, who has been Kapeller’s repair and restoration specialist, plans to open her own business, Mallory reports:
