"It's not everyday you get to see the oldest surviving English oboe, two portraits of Handel, and one of the few surviving Flemish baroque bassoons..."
Thank you so much! We really enjoyed listening to the instruments. An amazing collection!
"I'm generally not a fan of museums, but this one is fantastic!"
"There's a really wide variety of instruments in a small space so you can see a lot quickly. Free to enter and free audio guide of sounds."
"Fabulous collection and a treat to hear some of the sounds of the instruments."
"Thank you! That was AMAZING! So educational and inspiring and beautiful!"
"What a find! Such a great time looking round and listening to such wonderful instruments- loved the harpsichords!"
