Hi Trish,
I've found his brother William on the 1861 census and his occupation is listed as musician, so perhaps this is right.  It seems that the grocers business was run by their grandparents, and different brothers took over at different times until they moved on to something else, perhaps he did this while he was studying music.
It's his wifes family that I'm related to but this is quite interesting.
Thanks for find it Trish.
