Listening takes technique
Acoustic and electric gramophones are listed as separate items. During the explanation, it becomes interesting to see how a device produces sound and what role records or other sound carriers play in that.
More than a turntable
Microphones, players and a record collection broaden the subject. So the visit is not only about the outside of the devices, but also about recording, carriers and playback.
Planning a guided tour
Guided tours are offered at set afternoon times, lasting roughly three quarters of an hour to an hour. Ask which demonstrations or listening sessions are possible on your day.
Before you go
Outside the season, only group bookings from the stated minimum group size are possible. Confirm the start time and availability in advance; a collection does not mean daily drop-in access.
