The Vincenzo Sodi 1782 harpsichord on display at RAMM is so delicate that it can no longer be played.

With the aid of the latest computer technology, Exeter’s Sound Gallery have re-created the entire keyboard as an interactive installation. Visitors are welcome to try out their keyboard skills and hear how a piece of music would sound if they were able to play it on the 231 year-old instrument.

Free drop-in: 10.30am to 12.30pm and 1.30 to 4.30pm.
