About this event

Music at the Museum brings the lovely sound of live performances right into the heart of the Grand Gallery. Organised by Live Music Now Scotland, these free, informal sessions are all about sitting back amidst the historic collections to enjoy a little melody. You might hear a tune as you wander through the museum, or choose to find a spot to listen for as long as you like. It is a quiet, comfortable space to pause your day.

Whether you have the whole morning or just a few minutes, you are truly welcome to drop in. If you are looking for a simple, peaceful change of pace, you will find a gentle spot here to unwind. There is no pressure at all, so please come exactly as you are whenever you feel like hearing some music.
