Museum of Making Music

Museum of Making Music

Music! It’s the soundtrack of our lives, and it’s also part of a much larger story… the story of how an industry—the music products industry—supplies the world with the instruments, products and gear that we all use to make music.

When you step into the Museum of Making Music, you’ll find outstanding examples of musical instruments and innovations. You’ll hear familiar tunes in audio and see video clips of instruments being played and used. You will have many hands-on opportunities to pick up and play a variety of instruments. And you’ll discover the many ways in which instruments and the musical ecosystem around them have changed over the years.
