Welcome to The Library! These great halls are filled with the stories of our world's great musical minds, from the masters across ancient civilizations to the champions of our digital age. In this library, Menken, Powell, Zimmer, and Williams share shelves with Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, and Wagner, and the tales of composers not as widely known are told with the same enthusiasm as their famous colleagues. Our Curator, Stephen Trygar, invites you to explore this wonderous library with him one masterpiece at a time.
