The total fund of the museum has about 1 million items of storage, among which there are many exhibits related to the musical culture of the Uzbek people.
It is well deserving of recognition as the most significant special depository of diverse, rich and unique collections of Uzbekistan’s musical heritage from various historical periods. The museum was officially opened in March 1912 as the Rubinstein Museum1. The future fund of the Museum had been collected starting in the 1860s in the Moscow Conservatory (later renamed after P.I. Tchaikovskiy).
For a long time, the exhibits housed at the Museum were related exclusively to the musical culture of Russia and Europe. The museum was officially opened in March 1912 as the Rubinstein Museum1. The future fund of the Museum had been collected starting in
