On display are some 50 of the world's most important and best-preserved early keyboard instruments including harpsichords, virginals, spinets, organs and fortepianos. Many are in playing order. The auditorium at St Cecilia's Hall which dates from 1763 is the oldest concert hall in Scotland, and the second oldest in Britain.
Guided tours are given in opening hours. Postcards, publications, and recordings are on sale.
