This awesome place is like... 'Reading a Book' and experiencing it at the same time. Even if one has limited interest in Music, he/she will be enthralled. The experience is at par with any contemporary museum across the world - for sure. And situated right inside the city. All spheres of music has been explored.. origin, history, technology, culture, infusions, music instruments.. even politics. And sparks enough curiosity for one to explore more at once pace.. even after days. I'm from south with limited understanding of Hindustani and so I had great opportunity to understand the gharanas and specimens of culture from other parts of the country. I stepped out with more curiosity and mind & heart filled. Few suggestions for your visit - Keep minimum 2.30 to 3 hours for the tour - carry a 3.5 mm earphone - Try the studio and mix stations - Alone, with family, with friends, also with young children. Share the experience with all.

What a fabulous experience of visiting this place! When i first heard about this place, i was eager to visit it soon as i had never heard of a museum solely dedicated to music. And what an amazing experience it was! Loved everything about this whole place but the best experiences for me were the movie and music shows, the instruments gallery, the recording studio, the sound garden and the birdsong exhibition. The sound garden is a very unique experience. Being a bird lover too, the birdsong exhibition was an icing on the cake. Thank you for giving all music lovers such a beautiful experience and helping us learn and explore more about music

Probably one of the most immersive museums that I have come across in India. The museum covers all aspects of music starting from the origin to the evolution of the same. What makes it stand out is the audio-visual experience that a visitor gets in almost every gallery. One can play around with hybrid sounds and make their own tracks, sing to find their natural pitch, play intuitive games to learn about taal, and many more activities like that. Please visit before 3:30 PM as the entire experience needs close to 2 hours and the museum closes at 6:00 PM. Parking is available in the basement.

Better than I expected. Very well thought out layout and everything is interactive. Navigating through museum is easy, you'll learn a lot and they have some great relics like Daler Mehndi's performance dress and some original instruments of great artists. You get to create your music and sounds as well. High quality stuff, beautifully designed. In a beautiful and peaceful locality which has a lot to do before/after your visit. It should take about 2-3 hours to go through it all. There's a nice third wave cafe, an amazing learning centre and a piano you van jam on, plus an outdoor interactive sound garden. Do visit for a chill vibe.

First of all, I'm here as a tourist and I have no musical training which is totally fine to enjoy an attraction like this! At the front, you get to use your hands to try out the musical installments designed on the basis of sound resonance. Once inside, you need to take the lift to the 3rd floor and work your way down to the ground floor. Expect to spend at least 45mins and more if you really take in the exhibitions fully - which you should, to understand the rich history of music in India. Very well curated I must say, with clear info plaques, inspiring quotes from famous figures and interactive displays. The only thing I consciously did not attempt to do was to put on the headsets, otherwise, I'd imagine that would really enhance the India music experience! The gift shop was probably the only part that didn't keep up with the rest of the venue.

A rather interesting place to visit. Got to learn a lot about music and its origins Indian/International. Unearthing the nuances and history of different genres of Indian music was enlightening. You would need 3-4 hours to have a decent glimpse of this place. A souvenir shop is also available at the venue to take some memories back home. Head to the nearby cafe for some light snacks and coffee as well. Good place to take kids during school holidays.

Wow. What a wonderful experience here last night at the Indian Music Experience Museum in JP Nagar. My friend and I went on a weekend and still it was fine. Paid 250 for the tickets. We spent almost 5 hours there and still couldn't finish exploring the whole place of 3 floors. And hence, we felt the price ticket was totally worth it. Although we wished we could've come a lil earlier tho :/ So much of History and Information regarding Indian Music and its roots consisting of all types of genres like Rock, Indie, Metal, Jazz, Classical, Hindustani, etc. Loved how they had kept an iPad on every nook and corner of the gallery with two studio quality headphones for us to experience with the information they had given on it. That made it even more amazing. Such a good feeling. The minute explanation on Indian Carnatic and Hindustani Music was brilliant. On the history and the pioneers of the music. Simply amazing. This is such a must visit place for all the music lovers and especially Indian Music Lovers. It's not difficult to reach here too. We all can travel through Metro. The nearest Metro Station is the Yelachenahalli Metro Station. And there are so many eateries there too. It's also appreciative to see how well they've maintained the whole property around it. Thanks for the much worthy experience!! :)

Very peaceful and interesting gallery that takes you through the history of Music.. There are 2 mini theatres with short films about music. They also have a lot of interactive sections to learn about different types of music. There is a small studio set where you can record your own song and listen to it. Entry fee is 250 rs and not very crowded even on weekends. You can spend 1.5-2hrs here easily. Good place for photography also.

This music museum is an absolute delight for any music lover! From the moment you step inside, you're surrounded by a vibrant celebration of music's rich history. The interactive exhibits are a standout, offering hands-on experiences that cater to all ages. The museum's diverse collection spans genres and eras, featuring rare artifacts and iconic instruments. Whether you're a seasoned musician or a casual listener, this museum offers a captivating journey through the world of music. I highly recommend this gem for a unique and enriching experience. It's a must-visit for anyone who appreciates the beauty and diversity of music. Leave with a heart full of melodies and a deeper connection to the universal language we all love.

I recently visited the Indian Music Experience Museum, and it was truly stunning. Weekend ticket prices are reasonable at 250 per adult, available both on-site and through BookMyShow. Ample parking and luggage spaces add to the convenience. The museum is impeccably maintained, offering a captivating journey through music from the 1900s to the present, including a delightful theatre experience. Grab a map at the entrance for easy navigation, as the experience spans multiple floors. Don't miss the outdoor music experience and third-wave coffee for the coffee enthusiasts. Overall, a fantastic time well spent.

Great place for music lovers. You can easily spend couple of hours here, but if you are truly into music, plan for an entire day. There are 3 floors in total, and it starts from the the 3rd and descends from there. The entry fee is 250 per person and they follow COVID-19 precautions very well. Also, the place is exceptionally well maintained, truly commendable job by them! Parking is not an issue, either you can park in their parking or there's a small parking space across the road (though it's for something else, but you can park there, no worries) There's a souvenir shop, but doesn't sell anything related to music, so that was a bummer. There's also a small cafeteria. Overall it was a great experience and I'd strongly suggest that you visit this once!

Thank you for giving all music lovers such a beautiful experience and helping us learn and explore more about music. Entry fee: 250rs

This place is tucked in a cute little street in Jayanagar. I didn’t really think anything of it before going, but the museum proved me wrong. If you love Indian music and want to discover more about its roots and how it has evolved to where it is today, you should definitely check it out! The museum has small booths at every corner where you can listen to a different eras music with headphones connected to the display. The entire experience was very immersive, and it also very neatly maintained. If you don’t know what to do on a lazy weekend, would recommend checking this place out! It’s 250/- for entry on the weekends. Only thing I wish it was more interactive, to me it felt like they were playing a bunch of videos that I could find on YouTube. Overall 4.3/5 stars from me!

One of the best museums I've ever visited. The museum is very interactive, and is a treat to your ears. You can play various instruments both physically and digitally, create music of your own and immerse yourself in the music of legends. The exhibits are fantastic, and keeps both the beginner and the connoisseur engaged. The entry price might seem steep, but is worth every penny. The museum has 2 floors and they guide you to start from the third floor, which is huge. It took us around 2 hours for the third floor itself. Highly recommended .

This place is definitely highly preference to the music lovers, here you can find a vast kind of Instruments-not in general, here they have shown from Basic to the advance in indian music Instruments. This place is highly recommend to visit everyone with your friends and family and evendthouh alone which creates more impact on music thoughts.

It is a great place to visit with a family or alone to develop a great taste in music. It has an awesome curated collection of artists sorted by genre and timeline, which everyone will enjoy. The museum is tastefully decorated and has excellent exhibits to introduce children to culture and music. It has a coffee shop, which is a tad expensive but serves decent snacks. They could put some effort into the gift shop. Overall, it is a must-visit.

Very well curated exhibits. Lots of interactive ones that teach you the basics of music, showcase the artistry of musicians from all genres, take you through the historic journey of music in India. There's also an exhibit of 120 varieties of instruments. You can learn how music was used in every occasion - for prayer, for personal enjoyment, for uniting a national trying to overpower it's colonial powers, for mass entertainment through films and music videos. The museum is wheelchair accessible from the ground floor, though not from the basement parking lot. You can buy tickets at the box office. Recommend taking a guided tour with the help of volunteers. The volunteers are well trained and added a lot of extra information while guiding folks through the museum's halls. Don't miss hanging out at the outdoor cafe, letting the friendly staff bring you some customized snacks while you enjoy the greenery and watch children play with the outdoor exhibits, as the melody chime adds a calming soundtrack.

Best experience on budget!!! If you're fed up visiting malls and parks , gift yourself by visiting this muscical museum . Perfect for self -date , family outing and also educating childrean with valuable culture. Auto set-up was so engaging , even mixing of sounds of our own, singing and recording helped me to get rid of shy. The day I visited was rainy day , helped me to stay and actively learn inside the museum. Staffs were humble and helpful.

A must visit for those who are in the field of music, other music enthusiasts and kids who are undergoing music training. Even otherwise its a nice one time visit with kids for their general knowledge. This place has detailed history of music right from ancient days to the times of gharanas, till contemporary music. Its an experiential place. One can listen to lots of music inside. Visited today and it was not at all crowded. Enough precautions are taken by the management. Tickets are Rs. 250 for adults and Rs. 150 for kids till the age of 12. These days they are giving 20% off for adults if you show Covid vaccination proof. So go avail it. Parking is bit congested and if you are unlucky on a crowded day, it might be a challenge.

A must visit place for all music lovers. It will take around 2 -3 hrs for the complete tour. Headphones are available there to listen to the different music and songs but you can also carry your own earphones. Ticket price: 150 rupees (Monday - Friday) and 250 rupees (Saturday - Sunday)

Good place to know everything about Indian music. A music lover will definitely enjoy the time over here. Ticket is priced little high, but felt worth after exploring the venue. Live music used to happen last saturday of every month from 7pm to 10pm and museum also opens till 9pm. Timing 10am to 6pm Pricing 1. Rs 250/ adult 2. Rs 150/ children above 5 yrs

Fantastic experience! You can easily spend an entire day in this place. It will take you through the history of MUSIC IN INDIA from the Vedic period to now! I got to learn about the history of the HARMONIUM & VIOLIN which I did not know before. Plus there’s an amazing cafeteria and souvenir shop. Must visit if you are in Bangalore! Happy listening!

This has to be the most well curated, interactive and intuitive museums I’ve ever visited. And I mean that across India and abroad. I was truly blown away. The museum truly achieves its purpose - I learned a LOT. And with minimal cognitive effort. The explanations and exhibits have excellent user interfaces and experiences. Few recommendations - the exhibits on the confluence of the west and the east, the indie music space on the 3rd floor. Took me down memory lane and how! You get to listen to a variety of fusion music across the decades. You also get to make your own too - amalgamate Indian and western instruments. The Karnatik music exhibit - explains components and compositions in detail. They have equipment that lets you sing, understand your pitch, and practice different ragams. The wall of instruments - the iPad mirrors the instruments on the wall. I’m a huge audio nerd - the evolution from gramophones to radios to present day was stellar. There’s an ode to women who revolutionized the field too. And I could keep going. I had the most immersive and engaging experience here. HIGHLY recommend. 150 per person on a weekday.

don't think just go for it. It's an awesome place with so much of details and info about music since olden times. So many fun things and informative things and you will love it for sure. Take yours kids also and show them how the music evolved over the years.

Really awesome place to visit for music lovers. They curated a film to showcase how the music came into existence. They displayed different ways to experience various music genres. People perform live here. Every indian instrument can be seen and you can listen to each instrument. Sound Garden has instruments which we can try and experience the sound.

My new year began with a visit to the Indian Music Experience in Bangalore - the first interactive music museum in India. With amazing decor, well researched and detailed interactive experience of Indian music through the ages from the very beginning till contemporary Indian music. I got to know about so many classical and folk musical styles, along with some interesting foreign influence in some regional music. The instrument gallery with over 100 instruments with detailed information about origin, playing techniques and how they actually sounds is simply mind-blowing (would definitely visit again for this). The Sound Garden with ten playable musical sculpture bringing the concepts of resonance, frequency, pitch, timbre come to life. A must visit place if you are in Bangalore. I spent around 4 hours in the museum.

It's mindblowing, awesome, fantastic you can use any of these words to describe this place. I am not too obsessed with music but when I visited this place I figured out that it's not just music museaum but an awesome story of success, failure, up and downs and most importantly evolution of music and cinema in humane life. Here are details: It consist of three floors and each floor have it's own story and separate fan base. So here you go. Second floor: -It start with a video which shows how music is in soul of nature. -It tells story of evolution of Indian music. -You will get details of famous personalities from each decade and their contribution to music. -It has a section of folk and regional musical tradition with pictures. -Floor is awesomely designed with photo and quotes. -You will also see few very famous and vintage music instruments. First Floor: This floor is totally different than first floor but still connected with a thin string which you will feel when you will walkover this floor. -Starts with amazing collection of musical instruments from beginning till date. -Next you will get some taste of Independence movement and it's connection with music. -Then starts awesome section called Indian cinema. -Designed in way you will have taste of all type of cinema begening pre-independance till date. -They also have one small screen with 5-6 chairs it will give you thrill. -Next section you will see the evolution of radio and television. -Next you will see few famous musician's instrument kept here exclusively. Ground Floor: before going to ground floor you will go through music and related accessories store. At ground floor you will see multiple instruments which you can play. There is also one awesome small kitchen which will give you fantastic snacks although it's chargable. This was my experience and I am attaching all the pictures and videos which I have taken there you can relate it with my descrption. I hope this will inspire you to visit this place atleast once.

It is a beautiful place. I went there back in January 2020 with my father. Both of us enjoyed learning the history and evolution of music. They also have lot of things displayed openly some of which we are allowed to touch and try it out . There is a small movie theatre inside which was a mind blowing experience. They have canteen and clean washrooms so after the entire stroll we had our lunch there itself. If anyone is planning to come here, my suggestion would be to come with atleast 2 hours in hand. Only then will you truly enjoy this place.

Superb place... One of only kind of music museum in India. If you are a music lover or interested about the Music era and history, this is a must go for you. Amazed to see such rich things here. You will need at least 3 hours to visit completely and calmly. Car and bike parking is available for free.

The museum was a great experience! Getting to listen to the works of so many legendary musicians was truly wonderful. I also discovered several new artists through this visit. I also learned a lot about the history of Indian music, which was both fascinating and informative. One of the highlights of my visit was getting to sing karaoke in the recording studio, which was a fun experience. The museum exits into a store and then into a Third Wave coffee shop which is excellent. To enjoy the museum you need a minimum of 2-3 hours.

The Indian Music Experience Museum in JP Nagar, nestled beside Brigade Millennium flats amidst serene surroundings, offers a fantastic musical journey for all ages. The ambiance is enhanced by lush trees and a cool breeze, creating a pleasant atmosphere. Upon arrival, the welcoming and cheerful caretakers guide you to the ticket counter and explain the ideal journey, starting from the 3rd floor and descending. The museum boasts a grand piano where visitors can try their hand at creating music, setting the tone for an interactive experience. The 3rd floor offers an opportunity to compose music and listen to maestros from around the world and within India, tracing the evolution of music. The dome experience center is a highlight, providing an immersive musical adventure. The double-storied display of various instruments and their corresponding sounds is captivating. Additionally, the museum features instruments and attire from various renowned artists, adding to the enriching experience. Spending approximately 4 hours here is thoroughly enjoyable, making it an ideal spot for a day-long outing for music enthusiasts and curious visitors alike.

It was a lovely experience.. I haven’t had an experience with musical instruments.. so this was good.. A lot of history of Indian classical music and how it evolved.. and how all of them are all connected.. it’s amazing to see all the initiatives taken to crunch the evolution of music from different locations within the country and the music is still evolving.. The best was the hands on experience with the instruments..

Amazing place with music from all around the places from India and from all ages. I really loved the detailed information and one can also hear the music at this place. There were a lot of musical instruments placed here so it was really nice to know the details

Excellent place for everyone, even if you have no clue on music. Creative and design thinking in every corner. Open door Sound garden where sound can be heard from Granite Rock with grooves and water in hands was fantastic. Instrument gallery, Bollywood music for moods, Recording History, 180 degree welcome screen with introductory film on music, Contemporary, Classical and Folk galleries each of them have been done with passion and detailed research. No wonder IME is one of the best experiential museums in the country. Lastly it's disabled friendly including washrooms.

This was an amazing experience. It is obvious that a lot of thought and research has gone into making this place presentable without overwhelming or boring the visitor. There is information about music developing throughout different eras, styles, occasions and periods in the Indian Culture. The classification of these has been beautifully executed. To get to actually hear the different styles of music while reading up about it makes the experience complete in all senses. The main museum spans three floors, each having an amazing flow and décor. Besides, there is a sound garden outside which is nice. There's also a cafeteria. The bathrooms are excellently maintained. A must visit place, when you are in Bangalore.

One of the best places to be in blore, you could even spend a whole day here if you're inclined to music. It's more about the various music forms that stemmed from the cultural influences all around the country. The art of storytelling that has evolved through various art forms viz. Singing, dance, puppet etc have been displayed too. Must really appreciate the effort taken to set this place up. Don't forget to make the artist play the humming stones at the entrance.

Being the first interactive music museum in India, I would recommend everyone to visit this place. Especially music enthusiasts must visit this place, it has nearly 250 exhibits. A peaceful place to spend a day. There is also cafeteria and store inside the site, perfect to spend with family or friends.

Kudos to the team who came up with the idea and all the effort they took in organising such a wonderful and thoughtful place. It's a heaven for music lovers. The whole place is so clean.

If you're planning a trip to Bangalore and aren't sure what to do, here are some suggestions. Visit this magnificent museum, which has a completely worldwide level and is well designed. It caters to a wide range of interests. Even if you have no prior understanding of the Indian music scene, you will leave feeling fairly enriched. Although there is a slight leaning towards South Indian cuisine, probably due to the location, it is an interesting experience altogether.

What a place! Really impressed with how well they have thought through which building this place. There are 3 floors of musical instruments and music samples of different genres. Most have headphones that you can use to listen to, but do carry a 3.5mm jack headphone which you can plug into. Hand sanitizers are well placed throughout the museum. You'll spend atleast 1.5hrs going through the various floors and the sound garden. A must visit place for music lovers..

If you enjoy music, this place is a must. The evolution of music through the years is wonderful to learn and you get to listen to so many songs too! Lucky for me, I went during the bird song exhibition that was happening and it was amazing :)

A pleasant experience overall. We can learn a lot about all kinds of music and instruments. We can have the experience of listening to all the history behind the music. There are few artefacts donated by famous musicians too. There is a bird section. There is a souvenir shop. The ticket is 200/person above 12 years of age and 250/person on weekends. There is no parking as such. Do visit to have a nice music experience.

This museum is the best place for people who love music, who wants to get knowlege and relive the journey of Indian music, classic music, folk songs, renowned artist and many more. Had a great time there. Also one can record vocals and play virtual instruments. In the cafe area, there is some playful structures which produces music if one plays.

I visited twice on weekend and weekday. Experience was so smooth. Beautiful place and collection for the future generation. Music lovers can enjoy a lot also knowledgeable for kids.

The overall experience is good. It's truly a place for music lovers. The environment inside is quite peaceful. The tickets price are different on weekdays and weekends with weekends being little expensive 250rs per head. Each type of music with a short audio of each was displayed there and in between there were few jamming games to increase the fun of the experience. The introductory video at the top floor is must watch as it explains the importance of music in such a beautiful manner. There is sitting arrangements in between of the museum where you can sit and enjoy the music. A good place for all music lovers.

Superb place . Day well spent with kids . We spent 4-4:30 hours and enjoy every bit of it. Very informative . You can do your own voice recordings. Music garden outside the ticket window is awesome . Cafe is available. Restrooms available. Re-entry allowed . Kids friendly. Very clean place. Shop available. In all 3 floors to explore. Start with third floor and get down to first .

One of the best experiences in Bangalore! A MUST VISIT. probably the best museum I've ever been to. This place is huge and can take up to 3 hours to fully explore it.

It is a well curated space and is a good two/three hour experience if you explore everything. Would definitely recommend.

Must visit place for music lovers. A lot of information about various musical instruments. Evolution of music is shown in a very beautiful way. A well maintained place.

Beautiful place. Really interactive and such beautiful visuals amd representation. Was very insightful on all types of music and the growth of music in india from the very beginning to all the different cultural and social influences that caught on.

Felt wonderful visiting this place, went on Friday evening, adult ticket is 150/- on weekdays and 250 on weekends…the experience is a must if you are even slightly into music. Closes by 6pm so only spent 2 and half hours…maybe few more hours would have quenched my thirst for the experiences inside…should have reached in the morning itself as it opens by 10am…there are 2 headphones at every stop..you can also use your 3.5mm jack…that place just absorbs you…

By far the most serene and inspiring places in Bangalore. It's a must visit place if you are a music lover. The vibes here are simply amazing that will make you just immerse into the ambience. My body did left but my soul took a while to join me back as soon as I left this place!! such was my experience..

One of the peaceful places with melodic music while you walk. A combination of Music and Games is an awesome idea. Storytelling audio is super. Recording room fun is much needed.

An immersive experience of music light sound art and artists galore. This place is a splendid display of music in its best form. You can experience the evolution of music and educate yourself on the historical begining of music in the world. They have stunning display of music which has changed evolved and grown with its various geographical locations over a period of centuries and let's you get a hands on experience with it. Place is comfortably lit and air conditioned there is a in house store to buy memorabilia and also elderly friendly as they have lifts which reaches all levels. A must visit if you are bored in Bangalore or just have a hour to kill

Must visit for music lovers. One can easily spend 2-3 hours easily immersing in the world of music. Very well planned museum with music of all genres. Simply loved my time here. Restrooms are available. Third wave cafe is there in case you need a snack bite post visit.

Good place at banaglore to experience music in a relaxed and enjoyable way. The history of music and kinds of music. The museum will not just be enjoyed by musicians but will be enjoyed by any group of people. They have it all. Parking is a problem though. It should be kept on road. Luckily we got a spot. The wash rooms are very clean and staffs are very polite. Over all great experience

This is one of the best museums I have ever been to. I learnt so much and it was truly interactive. A must visit whilst in Bangalore in my opinion

It is an amazing place to visit and adds to the cities unique culture. It makes an Indian proud of the various number of musical instruments and objects that is not to be found anywhere else in the world. The museum could be better as many of headphones don't work and some of the glasses covering the artifacts where smudged. But it is still must see place.

Soulful & smooth like music. ?? INR 250, start with the 3rd floor, experience 180° screen playing AV on music origin, auto LED experience is amazing, Gharanas - Drupadas - EDM all in the house.

An unique museum of its kind in India that walks you through a rich and melodious history of Indian music and its evolution. Indeed, a must visit place for any music lover. The museum is spread across three storey building mainly comprising the interactive exhibits, the learning center, an instrument gallery and the sound garden. The interactive exhibits showcases various flavours of Indian music and its diverse music culture originated from different parts of the country. A learning center has a rich display information about Indian music and its evolution over the years. The instrument gallery is a real treasure of the museum. It has some really precious and rare music instruments belonging to legends like Zakir Hussain, Bhimsen Joshi, Bismillah Khan and many other. Computer based interactive setup helps visitors experience the process of music making. The sound garden in the premises let's you experience the process of sound creation through different mediums. You need at least 3 hours or even more to completely explore the museum. Even if you don't know anything about music, a visit to Indian Music Experience will surely help you gain a valuable knowledge about Indian music. On weekends, there are some volunteer guides available who explains minute details about Music Experience and answers your music related questions. The place has a basement parking with ample space.

It's a must visit place for every music lover. Filled with many beautiful musical experiences and hence the name - Indian music experience is very appropriate. There are two floors to visit where one can explore Carnatic music, indie music, folk music, and many other types of music forms. A great place to learn about all these music forms. The entry price for adults is 250 rupees which is a bit expensive but totally worth it.

Lovely place to learn about Indian music! This is a place of great culture and we get to know the different forms of music, dance and art.

I'm very pleased with the museum experience. Very informative, pleasantly interactive and worth the price. A gem in Bangalore.

Superb, awesome, very very informative about Indian Music. Time will go just like that. U need 3hrs to see n experience the verity of music n musicians. Plz visit worth to know about music.

Great experience, I have been a part of Mr. Zakir Hussain concert which held in July 2019. Wonderful experience, its an architectural achievement. Well built with creativity.

Where music meets soul .

Awesome place to know everything about music

A great place for music and history lovers. You can get to know about how indian music evolved through time. There are good listening options for different genres. Also there is a recording studio where you can show of your singing skills. Usually not so crowded as it is very south of city and away from city locality.

Awesome place for music lovers to spend some hours...

A must visit for all music lovers.

Takes atleast 4 hours to experience all the features. Seamlessly connected themes.

A place dedicated to Indian music comprehensive collection of musical instruments

One of the best place you can be at... As the name says its not a place it's an amazing experience.. I did not expect this to be so awesome... I just loved the place... I would recommend everyone to check out this place at least once! ??

Beautiful place! Its takes 2 to 3 hours to completely view this place. It’s a must visit place for all the music enthusiasts. You get a good knowledge about the history of Indian music. The interior design of this place is brilliant and the place is well maintained. I does have even souvenir shop and cafe.

(Translated by Google) Museum of Indian Music "Life without music is like a body without a soul" is the motto IME (Indian Music Experience) in Bangalore city. P. The Nagar area has a center that started on November 3, which was just over 6 months ago and is dedicated to Indian music. Brigade Group, the leading construction company in Bangalore, decided in the first two years to start a center with the help of sponsors. The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) has given 7 acres of land for the project, acknowledging that it would be a great cultural hub in the city. Then the Chairman of the Brigade Group, Mr. Jayashankar visited the world famous Museum of Experience Music Project in Seattle, USA. Learned the structure there. By establishing a brigade trust, its members accepted the challenge of setting up a project similar to Seattle by discussing it with people who were music savvy, experts, and cultural leaders. The world-renowned museum designer was called in from abroad. Heads of either museum were consulted. By doing so, the building was constructed in the year 5. Learning Center Wing was the first to begin in 7 years. In 7 years, the "Sound Garden" of the entrance was established. It was not only for the music lovers but also for the students of the school with a different knowledge. The final stage is that the entire museum will cost around Rs. The expense was opened to the public on November 7.            This museum has three main parts. 3) Interactive interactive topics - multimedia thematic galleries, a variety of musical instruments, three mini theaters, and many touchscreen tablets interacting with music lovers. Garden and 1) a learning center with five classrooms, a library and a meeting hall. Apart from the cafe and a gift shop.            The museum, which celebrates and displays the cultural heritage of Indian music, is built by the Chaushatri of see, hear, touch and discover. Upon taking the tickets, the staff suggested looking at all the galleries from the top floor and coming down to the ground floor. Accordingly, we went up the elevator. In the very beginning, small films were shown on music in small theaters. There are a total of eight floors on each of the four floors, suggesting a separate existence. Eight rooms showcasing various parts of classical and folk music in Hindustan! The different families of Indian classical music, their history, their legendary singer / singer, their detailed information and their rare soundtrack are all a wonderful experience. There is a hallway about folk music. There is also a section on Hindi film music. There are touchscreens, headphones everywhere. In one place, you can sense your "frequency" when you say "om" as long as it fits in the mic. In a nutshell, other museums do not have a binding message like do not touch, instead, their slogan is "please touch." Is jhiyama. (Original) भारतीय संगीताचे संग्रहालय "Life without music is like a body without a soul " हे जणू ब्रीदवाक्य असलेले IME ( Indian Music Experience ) हे बंगलोर शहरात जे. पी. नगर भागात नोव्हेंबर २०१८ मध्ये म्हणजे ९ महिन्यांपूर्वीच सुरू झालेले आणि भारतीय संगीताला वाहलेले केंद्र आहे. बंगलोरमधील निष्णात बांधकाम कंपनी ब्रिगेड ग्रूपने कांही स्पॉन्सर्सची मदत घेऊन असे केंद्र सुरू करावे असे प्रथम २००८ साली ठरवले. शहरात एक उत्तम सांस्क्रूतिक केंद्र व्हावे हे मान्य करून त्यासाठी बंगलोर डेव्हलपमेंट ऑथॉरिटीने ( BDA ) २ एकर जागा ह्या प्रकल्पासाठी दिली. मग ब्रिगेड ग्रूपचे चेअरमन श्री. जयशंकर यांनी अमेरिकेतील सिएटल इथल्या Experience Music Project या जगप्रसिद्ध म्युझियमला भेट दिली. तिथली रचना जाणून घेतली. ब्रिगेड ट्रस्ट स्थापन करून त्याच्या सदस्यांनी संगीताचे जाणकार, तज्ञ, सांस्क्रूतिक नेते अशा लोकांशी चर्चा करून हा सिएटलसारखाच प्रकल्प इथे उभा करण्याचे आव्हान स्वीकारले. यासाठी जगप्रसिद्ध म्युझियम डिझायनर परदेशातून पाचारण केले गेले. कांही संग्रहालयाच्या प्रमुखांचा सल्ला घेतला गेला. असे करीत २०१३ साली इमारत बांधली गेली. २०१५ साली Learning Centre Wing सर्वप्रथम सुरू झाला. २०१७ साली प्रवेशद्वारानजीकचे "साऊंड गार्डन " स्थापन झाले. हे संगीतप्रेमींना तर भावलेच पण शालेय विद्यार्थ्यांना एक वेगळे ज्ञानासह सहलीचे ठिकाण उपलब्ध झाले. शेवटचा टप्पा म्हणजे पूर्ण संग्रहालय अंदाजे ४२ कोटी रू. खर्चून नोव्हेंबर २०१८ साली जनतेसाठी खुले केले गेले. ह्या म्युझियमचे तीन प्रमुख भाग आहेत. १) परस्परसंवादी ( interactive ) विविध विषयांची ८ मल्टिमिडीया दालने ( multimedia thematic galleries ), एक निरनिराळ्या वाद्यांचे दालन, तीन मिनी थिएटर्स, आणि संगीतप्रेमींशी संवाद साधणारे अनेक टचस्क्रीन टैब्लैटस् २) झायलोफोन, गाँग आणि विंड चाईम्स सारखी १० आघातवाद्ये ( percussion instruments ) असलेली साऊंड गार्डन आणि ३) पाच वर्ग, ग्रंथालय आणि सभेसाठी हॉल असलेले एक शिक्षण केंद्र ( learning centre ). याशिवाय खाद्यपदार्थ पुरवणारा cafe आणि एक गिफ्ट शॉप. भारतीय संगीताचा सांस्क्रूतिक वारसा जपणारे आणि दाखवणारे हे संग्रहालय see, hear, touch and discover या चौसूत्रीने बांधले गेले आहे. तिकिटे घेतल्यावर स्टाफनी आम्हाला अगदी वरच्या मजल्यावरून सर्व गैलरीज् पहात पहात खाली तळमजल्यावर या असे सुचवले. त्यानुसार आम्ही लिफ्टने वर गेलो. अगदी सुरुवातीलाच छोट्या थिएटरमध्ये संगीतावर छानशी छोटी फिल्म दाखवली. चार मजल्यांवर प्रत्येकी स्वतंत्र अस्तित्व जाणवून देणारी एकूण आठ दालनं आहेत. हिंदुस्थानी शास्त्रीय आणि लोकसंगीताची विविध अंगे दिमाखाने दाखवणारी आठ दालनं ! भारतीय शास्त्रीय संगीतातील वेगवेगळी घराणी, त्यांचा इतिहास, त्यातले दिग्गज गायक/गायिका, त्यांची सविस्तर माहिती आणि त्यांच्या कांही दुर्मिळ ध्वनिफिती हे सर्व एक प्रगल्भ अनुभव देणारे आहे. लोकसंगीताची माहिती देणारे एक दालन आहे. हिंदी फिल्म संगीतावरही एक विभाग आहे. प्रत्येक ठिकाणी टचस्क्रीन्स, हेडफोन्स आहेत. एके ठिकाणी माईकमध्ये जेवढे जमेल तेवढे प्रदीर्घ 'ओम ' म्हटल्यावर तुम्हाला तुमची "श्रुती" "(frequency or pitch ) समजते. दुस-या एका ठिकाणी मोठ्या टचस्क्रीन टैब्लेटवर तुम्हाला वाद्य, रिदम यावर बोटाने स्पर्श करून स्वत:ची ' ट्यून ' तयार करता येते. हे फारच अद्भुत आहे ! थोडक्यात, इतर संग्रहालये जशी do not touch असा बंधनकारक संदेश देणारी असतात तसे इथे नाही. उलट, ह्यांचा नारा " please touch " हा आहे. असे हे एकमेकाद्वितीय म्युझियम आहे.

Well Indian music experience is a gallery of different kind genres of music good place though has a vivid collection of all the music of every context that is good but not much as I expected yes you get to see all the gallery of cinema industry as you can get the all the music from YouTube and information as per Google but not much as apart of good part is to witness few original instruments played by legends like Bismillah Khan, MS Subbulakshmi apart of it ya well maintained gallery

It's a very peace place where we get involved in the music, it was a great experience, i think you all should experience it once & the entrance price is also affordable & reasonable & worth.

Very informative and heart throbbing place!! Will get to know facts about the evolution of music and songs in India, especially when one is so interested in knowing music!! The entry is 250INR totally worth!! Each and every section is well maintained!! It will take 6-7 hours to completely explore the museum!! The atmosphere is kids friendly too!!

Fantastic museum. The best I have seen in India. Even if you are not familiar with Indian music, you can learn a lot about india and its culture in this museum. Allot 2 hours for a quick visit. If you are a cultural or music aficionado plan a full day. It is well worth your time. I was left very moved and inspired.

Nice experience

It was a wonderful experience.All music livers should visit this place.one can happily spend two to three hours.

Indian musical experience

An excellent collection of musical instruments, history of Indian music

good place... ❤

Great place for a music buff to spend. You can look at the large fantastic instruments collection. Briefs of famous musicians. You can even try your hand at composing. Interactive sessions. Kids will surely love this place. Highly laudable attempt to organise such a meaningful museum for Indian Music.

Absolutely wonderful. Three immaculately designed floors of knowledge and inspiration. The information is presented thoroughly and beautifully in well thought out sections, each complete with audio samples, illustrations and/or historical articles. I was so absorbed in the stories that I was only able to cover everything in two days (6.5 hours total). The average person wouldn't need two days; you could easily spend a lovely afternoon there digging deep into the musical roots of India and beyond. INR250 per entry. Completely worth it. Just go and have fun!

A must visit place for music lovers especially for those who love classical music.

Not worth 250 Rs per head. brigade looting people.. not much collection..

Great experience with music world must visit to experience it

It was a lovely experience.

Good collection of music albums.Enjoyed and felt lot of work done by promoters.Good place for music lovers as well as for music learners.

Well designed, colourful interiors, lot of information and experience

Lot of hard work is behind this experience. Thank for all those heroes

Excellent place to understand origin and development of Indian music

Great place to discover and learn about the origins and kinds of Indian music

This is the perfect place for people who love music and learning about many things.

Dig deep into the history of music from all over the globe through the creative and interactive exhibits. To be honest at one point it kinda gets boring. But it all depends on the individual.

It's in true sense, an enriching experience you go through. If you love music, it is a must visit place. Highly recommended.

Been there twice, would love to go again and again, go with friends who share the same interest and curiosity to better your experience. It's clean, quiet and wonderful.

This is one of the nicest paces I have visited.. whether u are a practicing musician, a closet/bathroom singer, a keen listener or just a person who likes humming a tune once in a while, this place is for you! Go with atleast 2.5 hours in hand. U won't regret it! Timings : 10 am to 6 pm (Friday, Saturday, Sunday during Covid Times) Note: The ticket counter closes at 5pm. Also, it is advisable to carry ur own earphones to the museum! For the love of music! Go visit this amazing place

Must visit for any music enthusiast... You can easily spend 2-3 hours reading through music history, watching videos, experiencing different music legacies...

Very good place for music enthusiasts . Learn all about musical history, different music forms etc.. You can sing and record your own voice

What a hidden gem in Bangalore. Heard about this place from a family member and decided to check it out with our toddler (15 months). A great way to spend a Sunday afternoon/evening. The IME is so well kept, classy, amazing decor and a wealth of info. Truly blown away by the effort put in to capture India's history with music. The flow of the musuem keeps you captivated throughout. I also want to give a shoutout to the staff at the IME . So friendly, patient, and made the entire experience even better. Finish off the tour with a coffee/chai at the cafeteria. Highly recommended.

Awesome.. A Must See.

Was amazed by experience of Indian musical history. Make sure you allocate around 3-4 hrs for this visit

Loved it

Great place to learn about Indian culture and music

A great place to visit and spend a few hours. You will love it even more if you are a music enthusiast. Learnt a lot about India's musical heritage.

Must visit for all music lovers

This place is both Musical and Beautiful

beautiful interiors and rich with information. Definitely coming back again. Parking facility available. Wheelchair access and senior citizen friendly. Not very interactive for children under 12.

Inside museum it's very dull and the lightings can be definitely improved. Not worth for the price of tickets.

Awesome experience....

It is the best place for music lovers Loved it

Nice collections..

This is a must visit for every music lover, magnificent museum covering history and evolution of Indian music.

Most of people don't know about this place. It's a Museum for Music. This place is absolutely beautiful and well maintained. It's an amazingly developed specially for music enthusiastic people. You can find every taste of music and music related stuffs, specially Classical music.

A must visit place for all the music lovers. You get to experience all different genre's right from old era to this modern era . Loved their sense of architecture and interior's❤

Very beautiful place n very informative. Spent 2 hrs there because of lack of time. Otherwise easily u can spend 4-5 hrs. Suitable for kids above 8 I think...as younger kids will not be able to appreciate different types of music n music related information. Very unique n one of its kind in Bangalore.

Wonderful collection and information on all forms of music. I learnt about various forms of indian music, influences of other cultures on our music and so much more. There is a film section, which brings back memories. Old records, Tape recorders, radios etc are neatly displayed. We spent more than 2 hours and still couldn't do justice to all it had to offer. Lastly, the place is neatly maintained and not crowded at all, which is an added advantage during covid times

One-of-its-kind museum. It gives a full idea of how Indian Music has evolved. This is a must-visit place. If you are travelling to Bangalore and you are a musician or interested in Music, then definitely make sometime and visit this place. Spend 3-4 hours properly when you visit this place.

Is a great place. However, covid restrictions can be better implemented. Many walking about with masks on their chins. You should ideally bring your own earphones/ headphones, not all sharing is healthy! I really hope they highlight this simple ask

Really nice place for music lovers ❤️❤️ enterance fee on week days is 150rupees and 250 on weekend days... I loved it❤️❤️

This museum is excellent for kids. It was very interactive and interesting. It was clean, after every 5 steps there were sanitizer. There were so much collection of old and new instruments as well as we could hear them in the screen with Headphones . It is very worth going !! Very Highly recommend ! 👌

It was a very good experience for both adults and children. If you have been living in banglore, this place deserves one visit. Add it to your day outs. This is a real good experience. The hall of instruments is amazing!! Gives everyone atleast one new thing to learn about music. There were things, instruments belonging to some legends. Please go visit this amazing place.

Just out of the world experience. Well organised thought out designs. Ambience and the sounds. Richness in the history background work. Just so good. Underrated place. Those who love any kind of music will enjoy every moment here. You can spend a day here. Still there would be something left to explore. Must visit place in Bangalore for art lovers

Absolute hidden gem. Great music park where you can play, experiment and enjoy creating music. The museum itself provides is a library of sounds, recordings, songs and history. Great way to begin your exploration of Indian music and culture. Must visit! Time: 3.5hrs Ticket: 250/- Landmark: Near Brigad Millenium

A very well curated museum covering everything in Indian music from classical to folk, from early historic to contemporary. There are three floors with exhibits that are visual and audio based, actual instruments on display and presentations! Please plan to spend atleast 3 hours there, so try to get in before 3PM because the place closes exactly at 6PM. Tickets are cheaper on weekdays (Rs. 150) compared to Rs. 250 on weekends, so go on a weekday if you can! Parking is available in the basement, photography is allowed but videography is not.

What an amazing experience. I loved the entire museum and details but my favourite area was the music garden just near the entrance. It was meditative.

Even if you're interested a little in music and influence of sound in life, The Indian Music Experience is a recommended place to visit in Bangalore worth the visit and I would suggest that you plan the visit keeping atleast a few hours to spend here. You can explore and enjoy the musical culture in the Indian subcontinent and the origin of the various musical schools and styles within the different parts of India as well as influences from other countries and cultures in the world. The experience involves interaction with audio visual devices displaying the timeline of various musical styles and their contributors, watching a few audio visuals in multiple mini theatre like spaces, exhibits of instruments, photographs, used musical and costume paraphernalia from old musicians etc. as well as a few outdoor sound devices and instruments made out of stone, metal, rubber and wood. The whole experience involves reading, listening and visual experiences with a need for utmost respect to the art and quality of the museum maintained. Recommend: 1. Carrying your own headphones with a 3.5mm audiojack to lessen waiting time to listen to the audio visual devices. 2. Carrying a water bottle since they do not provide drinking water at the exhibits. 3. Plan the visit with a few hours in hand and weekdays so the crowd is less. 4. Ask the staff at the outdoor sound exhibits to show how to interact with the exhibits. There is basement parking for visitors coming vehicles. An outdoor cafe and an in-house store is also located at this facility that is maintained by the Brigade group.

Good place. You can spend 2 to 3 hrs here. Will get knowledge about indian music and some knowledge about foreign music also. Ticket price in week days 150rs and in weekends 200rs.

The museum is so full of providing the knowledge and culture of the Indian Music culture through various unique ways with the help of lights and sounds. I got to know my scale of music by seeing the vocals, you can check your voice and how the studio stuff work. Therefore the place was worth a visit and definitely it should be something in a bucket list if you are in Bangalore. BUT please go on a weekday if possible since it’s 150rs. On weekends it’s 250rs. Also try to avoid the security guards they can be rude.

Indian Music has a rich, diverse and interesting history. The museum is a great attempt at showcasing that. It might be a hit and miss for many, but it has a lot to offer? Is the weekend ₹250 worth it (and fair)? No. Is the ₹150 fee worth it, including all the theatre experiences and other hands-on stuff? Hell yeah. It is an interactive museum and you should use the QR codes and refer to pamphlets to enhance the experience. Overall, a great experience, only marred by the lack of food options and toilet hygiene.

The museum is a surreal place for music lovers and a little escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. With it's theatrical experiences, aesthetic designs and musical instruments, it is a sure treat for heart and soul for the music lovers. History of Indian music has been beautifully engraved in the museum through various ways which upholds India's rich cultural heritage. Headphones are provided to experience the melody and rhythm of songs of various genres, dance forms and instruments. You can carry your own earphones and connect it will the plugs provided, in case you don't want to use the headphones that are being used by most visitors. Also, you can record your own song, provide your mail id, and your recorded song will be sent to your mail id immediately. You can play certain instruments and experience the joy of it. The cost of ticket is Rs. 150 on weekdays and Rs. 250 on weekends. Being a working professional it's difficult to visit places on weekdays. In my opinion, the price of the ticket on weekends (Rs. 250) is on a higher side. Rs.150 is a good price for the musical experience in the museum. However, the crowd on weekends is more. So, if you want to get inside the recording room and record your song, you might have to wait in que. Plan your visit accordingly. The place lacks eateries. The coffee shop adjacent to the museum is expensive. The museum is located at JP nagar, well connected through public transport. Also, booking a uber auto or cab is not difficult. Parking space is also available on the other side of the museum.

The India Music Experience Museum is a captivating gem that transports visitors into the enchanting world of Indian music. With its immersive exhibits, information regarding musics, and informative displays, the museum offers a rich and vibrant exploration of India's musical heritage. A must-visit for music enthusiasts and cultural seekers alike.

Nice place to have a peaceful weekend. Must visit place for everyone doesn't matter whether you are a music lover or not. Every corner of this place is beautifully designed. It offers you a great experience of music. I visited this place on weekend and it costs 250 per person on weekends. You can buy ticket online or you can directly take from counter, it is not very crowded.

An amazing experience at this place. Dont forget to record your own album in second floor with karoke and send it to ur mail. Went on a weekend and it was quiet and nice. Had fun playing all musical instruments. Cons: Its pricy on weekends😢

Indian music experience is a well designed place for music lovers. It is curated carefully to include global and local music. The place is organised in sections influenced by music as part of life. There are guides who can give a tour of the place if one wishes. Kudos to the youth who volunteer as guides after school and weekends.

I have recently visited The Indian Music Experience Museum (IME), located in JP Nagar, Bengaluru. The ticket price was 250 rupees per head on weekend which i felt was a decent amount for this wonderful experience. As soon as u step inside, u can actually feel that u entered into the world of indian music. U will get an idea on the famous musicians, bands, many genres of Indian music, musical instruments, and their evolution. Although it was indulging and informative. I just wish it was much more interactive. We spent around 3 hours here. Its definitely a UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. MUST VISIT with friends or family(especially kids). U will for sure enjoy ur trip here. There's also a coffee shop, gift shop, and ample space for parking. I am expecting them to conduct some fun and interactive sessions in future to attract more visitors.
