Finchcocks Musical Museum is closing

For 45 years, Finchcocks Musical Museum has been open to the public to view and play their collection of historic keyboard instruments. Yesterday, owners Katrina and Richard Burnett closed the museum, so Music Matters visited the museum in Kent to hear some of the instruments and the stories from the house, and find out what’s next for the collection, as some of the instruments will be sold in auction. Tom spoke to David Owen Norris, an expert on historical keyboards, to get his reaction on the closing of the museum.
