NMC Tours: Backstage Pass

Step behind the curtain at Studio Bell for an exclusive look at the National Music Centre’s recording studios. This one-hour tour, guided by NMC music educators, offers a rare glimpse into the working spaces where music comes to life. Explore 450 years of musical innovation, from a 16th-century Trasuntino Harpsichord to TONTO, the legendary synthesizer. You’ll also see the Rolling Stones Mobile Studio, a historic unit used for countless hit records. Note that strollers are not permitted and tours are recommended for ages 12 and up. Space is limited and first-come, first-served, so booking in advance is highly recommended. NMC members and musicians can visit the front desk for discounted rates.
