Pleasantly surprised to see published scores of John Gay's the Beggar's Opera and Henry Purcell's Orpheus Britannicus on display at National Library of Australia. This exhibition, titled "The Excellencies of Musick", showcased some of the most important items from Jamie & Michael Kassler Collection.

Roland Green was a painter and the son of a taxidermist. It’s no surprise then that he went on to become a popular bird artist. Discover more artists in our collection: brnw.ch/21wPSqp
