Absolutely loved learning about all sorts of different instruments-from how they are made to their impact on the music industry. The museum gives an amazing presentation of the instruments and other expanding music technology, showing samples of the instruments and music of the time. The museum also has multiple interactive areas where you can play it the instruments. The staff was great and so sweet even though we did experience some purchasing difficulties with the card reader. We went Sunday and while other families arrived we were able to experience each exhibit with no rush or waiting to move on. Great for the whole family!!

Amazing place!! From precious instruments to historical video-recordings of famous artists; from exclusive interviews with composers and music producers; and from videos showing the instrument manufacturing process to the unique chance to play with an incredible array of instruments, this museum has it all. Well informed staff that pop up whenever you have a question and a truly gem of a music and books store. And the entrance fee is ridiculously low, too! Can't wait to bring the whole family for a fun filled afternoon here!!

Fabulous museum! The exhibits are interactive and some of the instruments left my party in awe. From exhibits arranged by curated instrument categories to the catogory arranged by the history of music in the USA, this museum will be enjoyed by musicians and music fans, of any age. Best part; "you play" instruments played by the artist in our party.

Touch screens and well educated, personable volunteers make this a wonderful experience. The array of rare and exotic instruments is unsurpassed. Really enjoyable. Well worth the visit!!
