Preserving and Exploring our Musical HeritageThe Museum of Music History
-
We care for tens of thousands of musical artefacts spanning several centuries. Our unique collection of musical material encompasses sheet music, portraits, photographs, concert, opera and ballet programmes, ephemera and illustrated title pages, books, periodicals, sculpture, instruments, recordings and personal archives.
All aspects of vocal and instrumental music are celebrated, from opera to popular music. We provide access to researchers by appointment and are always seeking to build partnerships with other museums and institutions, including those devoted to the other performing arts.
We welcome enquiries from any individual or public body seeking a secure location to which they can donate their historical collections and archival material.
