Auckland Museum Announce 'Volume: Making Music in Aotearoa' Exhibition

The good folk at Auckland Museum have announced the impending arrival of their landmark exhibition Volume: Making Music in Aotearoa.

Scheduled to open on 28th October and run until 22nd May 2017, Volume will be the first major exhibition to tell the story of popular music in Aotearoa. According to a press release the exhibition will allow music lovers to "roll up their sleeves and experience how music has been made, heard, and performed over the past 60 years in a ‘hands on, ears on’ exhibition".

Visitors will be able to step into a recording studio and get behind the mixing desk, become a DJ and blend music and video, browse records in a 1980s record store, learn how to play the opening riff of an iconic Kiwi song, or step back in time and on to the set of classic 1960s pop show C’mon.

Here's a trailer for the exhibition...
