Sigal Music Museum

Sigal Music Museum celebrates music through the ages by entertaining and informing audiences through interactive exhibits, educational programs, and intimate concert performances. Currently on display are two exhibits, "Worlds Apart: Musical Instruments from Secular to Sacred" and "Sigal Living Presence: Highlights of the Museum's Working Collection."

“Worlds Apart: Musical Instruments from Secular to Sacred” aims to increase public access to historical instruments from around the world and improve visitors’ understanding of musical traditions at the global level. The exhibit seeks to expose audiences to musical instruments and customs that are often overlooked or exotified.

"Sigal Living Presence", features the highlights of the Museum’s working collection. All keyboards on display are in working condition, meaning they have stood the test of time and live to play again.

Formerly the “Carolina Music Museum”, the museum is now known as the “Sigal Music Museum” thanks to the generous gift of the expansive Marlowe A. Sigal Collection. The museum is a 501(c)3 organization founded by Greenville arts advocates with the goal of creating the leading center for preserving and celebrating global musical narratives. Visitors include music aficionados, students, and tourists from across the country and the world.
