Other instruments will join the studio over time. Please feel free to make suggestions... or donations (instruments never played, manuals, books about art, music or instruments).
Please note: we also accept instruments “on loan“. You can lend us instruments – they will be played by the members of the studio and I will take very good care of them. You can take the instrument home whenever you want.
