Grainger Museum

About

The Grainger Museum, founded by pianist and composer Percy Grainger, is the only purpose-built autobiographical museum in Australia.

Story

Percy Grainger preserved the evidence of his creative life - his archive, personal library and many of his possessions - in his Museum on the campus of the University of Melbourne, the city of his birth. Grainger’s extraordinarily full life also included pioneering work as a folk music collector, innovative music educator, social commentator, clothing designer, and inventor in the field of Free Music experimentation, resulting in a diverse and eclectic collection.

Odd museum, created by artists own funding. Made him historically more important than the music lends to. Quite an odd chap, good to know if you are an historian of musicians.

What a surprise to come across this amazing, fun and informative Museum covering Percy Grainger's life's work - even got to play on many of the master's music machine inventions - wow that was a treat.

Great little museum, but with one major incomprehensible drawback . . There is none of his music playing anywhere !!! What was playing was a random cd of Vaughan Willams . Was a bit embarrassing to explain to my friend who commented that he liked the music being played, that it wasn't actually Grainger at all !
