#DidYouKnow we have a piece of sheet music in our collection? It's called the 'Five Pound Polka', and it was composed by Stephen Glover in 1852. We'd always wanted to hear it played, so we spent ages looking for a recording. Unfortunately, we couldn't find one anywhere

So we asked friend of the Museum @RobinLSL to play it for us. And he did! He even recorded it, so we could share it with you. Thanks Robin https://b-o-e.uk/30Vc5vO 

What do you think? We love it, it’s super cool hearing this blast from the past. If you fancy having a go at playing the 'Five Pound Polka' yourself, you can find the sheet music here: https://b-o-e.uk/3hEtjEp  Let us know how you get on!
