The Music Museum remembers this month the Portuguese lyric singer, Luísa Todi (1753-1833). In a period that marks her death 178 years ago, we couldn't forget this date and we have chosen as piece of the month a portrait made by Elisabeth-Luise Vigée-Le Brun, which was painted in one of the singer's stays in Paris.

September has just arrived and with it a new Piece of the Month, an iniciative in which we make public the richness and diversity of the Museum's collections.
To celebrate the International Day of Press (24th September) we have chosen this month the typewriter whose model was developed by the American composer Cecil Effinger (1914-1990) and later produced by Music Print Corporation.

Um instrumento da Amazónia no mês em que se assinala o Dia Internacional das Populações Indígenas
02 August 2011
Dia 9 de Agosto a ONU assinala o dia Internacional das Populações Indígenas. Não deixando passar a data em branco, o Museu da Música escolheu como Peça do Mês de Agosto um instrumento amazónico. Além de assinalarmos esta data, ao escolher um instrumento festivo, honramos simultaneamente o Verão e as festas na praia.
During this festival season, we remember this month the piano Rhodes, an instrument that left a mark in the 20th century's music and which will certainly be present at any summer festival, at least at the British group Portishead's concert.
