New exhibit at Villa Terrace strikes up the music, more specifically the history of sheet music and its ties to Milwaukee
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)— "The Beat Goes On" has a nice sound to it, especially for all those involved in the temporary exhibition happening now at the Villa Terrace Museum and Gardens on Milwaukee's east side.
There are more than 50 examples of illustrated sheet music, vintage instruments, and original audio recordings spanning six decades of American history.
As a sponsor, Hal Leonard plays a big part of what you're seeing. After all, it's considered to be the world's largest sheet music publisher and headquartered in Milwaukee since the 1980s.
The overall exhibit, found on the Villa's second floor, will be around until the middle of January.
CBS 58's Michael Schlesinger also took the opportunity to find out more about Hal Leonard, and how this company has evolved over the years. Anybody who loves music or has played an instrument has probably heard of this company or even bought a songbook from here.
