Please do not take offence if musicians and scholars on this folk and blues music forum discuss what appears to be a lack at this one particular museum. Others have been mentioned in other threads, such as the V&A for closing the musical instruments exhibit ad C# House countless times for concerns too many to relate.

People on this forum also look at promoting traditional music, not merely complaining of the lack. The original poster opened the topic and provided an opportunity for US, UK and any other members and guests on this forum to think about what might be done t fill the gap.

Hopefully from this thread people may join the Friends of the museum, get in touch with organisations and people who can donate or loan relic instruments, music scores, archive recordings and photographs for a temporary exhibit.

Kind regards,
