Lonely Planet review for Museu Villa-Lobos
Housed in a century-old building, the modest museum is dedicated to the memory of Brazil’s greatest classical composer – and founder of the Brazilian Academy of Music – Heitor Villa-Lobos. In addition to scores, musical instruments – including the piano on which he composed – and personal items, the museum contains an extensive sound archive. Classical concerts are sometimes held in the adjoining courtyard.
