Originally called the Music Museum, the building was constructed for Percy Grainger between 1935 and 1938.
The museum contains not only a large quantity of material from Percy's own life, but much material concerning his musical contemporaries, particularly the lesser-known ones.
Over the past 20 years, the museum has been collecting a range of materials and has resulted in the publication of three music catalogues and two books of letters.
The museum annually exhibits two different aspects of the collection and presents concerts and cultural events throughout the year.
