Hamamatsu Museum of Musical Instruments

Hamamatsu, a city where companies like Yamaha and Kawai produce a large number of reed organs, as well as being the base for these world class organizations, strove to establish itself as a "city of music," so to speak. One step towards that goal was the creation of the Hamamatsu Musical Instrument Museum. The building houses roughly 1300 instruments from around the world which are lined up on display in separate exhibits representing Asia, Oceania, Africa, the Americas, Europe, and Japan. There is a system that allows visitors to listen to the sounds of each instrument on a set of earphones and also movies that introduce certain instruments such that even upon seeing one for the first time, people can learn about the way they sound and how they are played. It is a museum that can be enjoyed by visitors of all ages.
