The Music is Black: A British Story. A landmark exhibition. Opens Saturday 18 April at The V&A East.
Some music holds memories. Some music builds worlds. From the slow sway of Lovers Rock, to the basslines of Jungle, to the raw energy of Grime - sound has shaped generations of British culture. The Music is Black: A British Story at V&A East Museum is our first exhibition exploring 125 years of music, style and community that changed the UK.
