When you tour through the Cantos Music Collection, you journey
into our musical history. With over 200 instruments on display,
the collection spans the evolution of music from 246 B.C. to
present day. Note that unlike past events,
this is not a CCC-only tour - we'll be joining the public tour at
1:30.
Among the pipe organs, clavichords, pianos, synthesizers, drum machines and related artifacts are: a one-of-a-kind Johannes Couchet harpsichord from 1679, a Kimball theatre organ from 1924, an impressive variety of Moog electronic instruments and a Mellotron similar to one used by the Beatles. While the instruments are incredible to behold this is more than just a visual experience. A tour of the collection gallery is an interactive exploration into the sounds of the past. A celebration of music. www.cantos.ca |

Every time I go to Cantos, the tour is even better than before. They had lots of new and interesting instruments this time, including a Hurdy Gurdy, and lots of synthesizers. The theatre organ and the mellotron (with the human chorus samples) continue to be my favorites. Thanks to everyone who came out!
