We were NOT disappointed!!
Despite mixed reviews we felt the museum was worth a visit. We loved it all! Our great, articulate, informative guide shared fascinating and intriguing histories of the impressive array of instruments. The best part is that being a Saturday, there was a dance class with live music and no doubt we would have been able to join in had we had the time. This visit took no more than one hour. They closed for an hour at lunch. If you're expecting a Manhattan or Paris museum forget it! This is a museum from the heart and soul of Puerto Rico.

Wish there was music playing
Take the guided tour for free and walk around viewing different instruments. This stop is quick and easy on your 'to do' list. Unless you are a music lover, this is something that is on the 'nice to see if I have time' list. There are different styles of music in each room and the instruments that partake with that style. I peeked outside and it looks like they may hold concerts, but it is infrequent as I have been told. The last room holds some cute styles of instruments. I wish that we could hear the different styles of music, but the radio played modern stuff.
