About the Tours
Through an exclusive Backstage Pass tour, visitors will catch a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the working spaces of our world-class recording facilities and hear the stories behind notable artifacts, spanning 450 years of music innovation and technology, from NMC’s talented music educators, technicians, and studio team.
Visitors will gain insight into some of NMC’s most treasured items — that few members of the public have seen — from the earliest instruments in the NMC Collection, such as a 16th century Trasuntino Harpsichord, to modern electronics, like TONTO, considered to be the ‘holy grail’ of synthesizers.*
