Musical Instruments | From Exhibit to Experience

The sound of music was woven through everyday life in early America—from homes and taverns to work, community gatherings, and celebrations. Simple instruments such as fifes, whistles, jaw harps, and rhythm instruments invited everyone to take part. Our collection carries these traditions forward, connecting museum visitors with the past through music they can hear, play, and take home.
