World War One Exhbition
30 Jan 2020 - 28 Jun 2020
Musical Museum
TW8 0DU
This new exhibition comemorates the end of the First World War and the Returning Soldier. The Museum has a library of recordings for use on reproducing pianos, and a collection of instruments that were at the height of popularity in the1910s and 1920s. The music that emerged from the war is sometimes upbeat and incongruous with the tragedy of the period, while other music seeks to evoke the trauma of the front-line. The exhibition features a local history perspective, a display of music from our collection, and recordings of music from the era played on our instruments.
Admission to the exhibition is free
Presented by Musical Museum, Brentford
