Chamberlain Music is a Department for Education approved supplier for the Musical Instruments, Equipment & Technology Framework
Rapid advances in manufacturing technology have undoubtedly provided modern consumers with more choice than their ancestors but they’ve also caused us to cast aside many centuries-old artisanal crafts in favour of cheap mass-produced goods. Thankfully there are enough bastions of enthusiasm left to keep these historic trades from disappearing altogether, and the last few decades have seen a resurgence in the popularity of ‘investment’ products.
Our MC1 leather music case is a prime example, handcrafted by highly skilled workers who spare no expense in creating products that will last a lifetime. Each leather hide used to make the cases comes from reputable British sources and is sanded by hand to remove any imperfections before being tanned using state-of-the-art environmentally friendly methods. Each panel is then individually cut out, inspected, and stitched together according to the familiar classic design.
Its opening/closing mechanism consists of a metal bar that hooks over the carrying handle, held in place by riveted loops of leather. This ingeniously simple system makes it quick and easy to open the flap and keeps everything extremely safe and dry when closed. Also, with no zips or clasps to weaken it, the resulting bag is practically indestructible! Inside there is enough room to fit a good pile of music and instrument accessories, and even a laptop or tablet.
The MC1 represents remarkably good value for money and is available in a huge range of colours so you can match your music case to your school colours, or pick something that will stand out in a crowd. There’s also a newer model available – the MC2 – made with even thicker, better quality leather.

Excellent quality and very efficient service
Lovely leather music bag my mother absolutely adores. Great colour choices and very fast delivery. Highly recommend to everyone.
Excellent quality and a superb service
The product is great and made a lovely present. Service from order to delivery excellent.
I am delighted with the product, very smart leather music case. The service from Chamberlain was very good - there was no space on the online order form to request it be delivered to my neighbour..... but an email to Chamberlain was responded to immediately and they added the instruction to my order. I would use this company again.
My granddaughter was delighted with it
Another lovely bag for my other granddaughter, lovely colours and brilliant delivery

Arrived very quickly and perfect condition. Ordered as a present for someone, so all perfect

Such a great vital colour, lovely leather and so well-made. Perfect.
It's just perfect. Beautifully handcrafted high quality leather.
Very nice case. Will provide feedback once my wife has opened her present!
lovely quality case, striking colours
Beautiful music case. Thank you
Beautiful quality. Highly recommended.
I was thrilled with this beautifully crafted item. I bought it as a present for a small boy and I know it will weather down over the years to become a softer and characterful case that he can use for a lifetime. Such a valuable thing in this age of built-in obsolescence. It's a classic and I can recommend it without reservation.
Fabulous quality - superb value for money.
Bought this leather music case for my granddaughter for passing her grade 6 piano examination. Case is excellent quality and at a good price. Satisfied customer !!
Excellent quality would recommend them
I ordered something. It turned up as ordered, quickly, and seems to be excellent quality. Not much more to say, really!
Lovely music case. Great choice of colours; I love the dark navy blue. Not too bulky; room for a couple of books of music plus notebook and pencil case.
Feels sturdy and well designed.
Lovely case. Very smart and practical. A purchase to remind me of younger days learning piano!
Excellent value for money and a quality product.
Excellent product and service. Very prompt Royal Mail delivery.
I have not seen the music case so I am rating this according to information received. It was a present for my ten-year old grandson - in recognition of his recent performance in a music exam. It was very well received. I had asked what colour he would like and I understand he is very pleased with the shade.
It's a lovely music case, but I wasn't expecting something so shiny. It's patent leather, very glossy, which wasn't obvious from the website photos. I'm sure it will soon look a little less shiny with use.
Well made traditional product at a competitive price.
Good quality product, exactly what was needed.
This is a very high quality leather music briefcase. I thoroughly recommend it.
Purchased a baby pink music case for my granddaughter and was delighted when it arrived and i got it out the box, loved the colour and quality of leather. Can't wait to see my granddaughter's face when she opens it at Christmas. Thank you.
Bought this for my granddaughters 11th Birthday - was very impressed in the quality of the bag.
Great quality, quick delivery. It looks alot more expensive than it was. Very happy
Excellent product and service great too - like a previous reviewer my trusty old case had given up after nearly 50 years of active service, and I was upset to say the least! - but hey ho, onto the internet I went and found this one and I am not disappointed. It's sturdy yet soft leather, looks great and will see me out!
Thankyou for your speedy and efficient service. The case I bought is good value and well made. The only negative point I wish to make is the UPS packing box. If I had been an older person with difficulties like opening jars etc I wouldn't have been able to open this box. I used a blunt paperknife which I had to work along the very sticky edging and lever the sdge strip off the box. The obvious way of opening would have been piercing the box with scissors but damage to the product might have happened.
Great music case. . . well made and nice colourway. Xmas present for budding musician husband! Arrived in good time, I was kept updated about the order and packaging was excellent. Would highly recommend.
Excellent quality, reasonably priced and fast delivery. Will use again.
Arrived before expected date. Looks very nice. And good quality. I'm sure my son will like it.
Mimi - aged 7 - So pleased with music case. Excellent service too. Thank you.
Great quality leather and design perfectly fits the purpose. Customer service also very good and very prompt delivery.
Lovely item, good quality, just what I wanted. Price seems reasonable for a product of this type/quality. Delivered quickly.
Couldn't be happier with the product and service. The music case is great quality, good size and looks really smart. It's a very reasonable price and the delivery was beyond good. No postage charge and it arrived promptly the next day! Excellent!!!!
Excellent quality. Bought as a gift. Really pleased with purchase. Well packed and arrived on time.
Top quality case, excellent service
Top quality case excellent service
The music case is top quality and the delivery service was excellent. Very pleased.
This was not the cheapest I could find but it looked the cheapest that I would like. And I really do like it. Excellent quality, nicely finished and very well packed. Delivery round the weekend, shortly before Christmas was still only four days. Excellent.
I am very pleased with the music case and with the prompt service. It also was a cheaper price compared to other stores.
My last music case (a beautiful, soft leather present I received 47 years ago) has finally died. I searched various music shops to find a replacement but the best they could offer was a rather horrid, synthetic specimen in bright purple! Finally I had a rush of blood to the head and turned to the internet where I found just what I was looking for. I ordered it in the middle of the night (I'm a bad sleeper) and, within hours, received an acknowledgement of my order and confirmation it had been despatched. It duly arrived promptly. As it is a special birthday present I am absolutely thrilled (a) to find exactly what I wanted and (b) that the service was spot on. Thank you for making my day! MT
Purchased as a gift. Speedy delivery and first class product.
Great colour and so trendy for a young musician! Delighted!
A beautiful case, superbly well-made with first class leather. It will last a lifetime.
Delighted with the product and with the service provided by the company to ensure that the case arrived in time for my daughter -in -law's birthday
excellent, beautifully made, came in 4 days even across the weekend :O)
I bought for my 10 year old son and he loves it. The quality is excellent and is arrived promptly. Having read another review I am planning to have the case embossed with his initials. My son is thrilled with what will end up being a very special present for a great music exam grade achievement and I hope will last him a long time.
As we are coming up to Christmas I was surprised how quickly it came. The case is a beautiful soft leather and a joy to handle.
Very quick delivery quite surprised as the post seems to be in a bit of a mess at the moment. Music case I ordered is very good quality and am very pleased with it. Shall order form you again. Thank you
I sent this case to my Godson in Kent. He loves it and will treasure it always,it will see him through all his schooling and hopefully have it forever. Marje H Canada
Really fast, helpful service. My music case looks lovely and on taking it to have my grand daughter's name embossed on it by a traditional bookbinder was told it was excellent quality.
Concerns over late delivery were dealt with successfully by a very helpful customer service team. The case in navy blue looks wonderful; good quality leather and elegant design.
