Thread Name: Old instruments in museums
Subject: RE: Old instruments in museums
Manitas, that sounds right. I was in total system overload by the time I reached the musical instruments - just kind of wandering around going "wow, man", and it wasn't chemically-induced either - so I couldn't remember what it was called.

Bev/Jerry, that sounds about right. Unfortunately we didn't notice that until we were on the way out. Still, I never did get to see the displays of clubs and swords and stuff upstairs, so I'll be back another day.

On the music front, I've done some digging, and they actually have a full-time musicologist on the staff of the museum. Guess they'd be the person to ask about what gets played.

Grab.
