Music Explorium®

Blaise and Cathy Kielar

Cathy and her husband Blaise in 2005.

Music Explorium® was founded by Blaise Kielar in Carrboro NC in 1999. For years we sold a variety of strings, winds and drums from all over the world, as well as electric violins. In 2005 Blaise focused on his related business, Electric Violin Shop, with Cathy Kielar taking over Music Explorium. Cathy chose to stop selling musical instruments in 2007 to offer a rhythm-events. Since Cathy’s training, talents and interests lie in the drum circle experience, Cathy refocused the mission of Music Explorium® to be:

Creating and facilitating hands-on rhythm events for fun, education and community building, for all ages, from preschool to senior center residents.
