Om

Raske fakta: Over 7 000 instrumenter fra 200 land fyller museets enorme lokaler på 18 600 kvadratmeter. Du kan låne en trådløs hodetelefon som automatisk utløser musikk og forestillinger når du nærmer deg hver utstilling, noe som gjør opplevelsen levende.

Høydepunkter: Experience Gallery lar deg faktisk spille på et Wurlitzer-teaterorgel fra 1920-tallet, et balinesisk gamelan-orkester og en ståltromme fra Trinidad. Kuratorer holder 40 til 60 instrumenter i spillbar tilstand til enhver tid, så besøkende kan kjenne vibrasjonen fra en mbira mot håndflatene eller klimpre på en mongolsk hestehodefiolin.

Insidertips

  • Arrive right at 9 AM opening so you grab one of the blue visitor headsets before the crowds arrive.
  • Skip the crowded Asia gallery first and head straight to the smaller, quieter Africa section where the displays feel more intimate.
  • The café serves decent sandwiches and coffee, but the food trucks on East Mayo Boulevard nearby offer better value and more variety.
  • Wear comfortable walking shoes since the self-guided route loops almost a mile and a half through all five galleries.
