  Loved this experience! You get to try out instruments and listen to old recordings. But the best part is the staff. One guy in particular was amazing.

Wish I had read his name tag.

  An awesome place to visit! Especially if you love music. I visited here with the family and the younger ones (they’re teenagers) really enjoyed getting to play with the instruments. Very educational and love how interactive the whole museum is. Definitely recommend!
