MembershipMembership of the Percy Grainger Society brings a range of benefits:
| GLOSSThe Grainger Library of Sampled Sounds is a collection of recorded sounds from the Percy Grainger Home and Studio available for creative use. The sounds include samples of instruments in the collection, and ambient sounds from the house and neighborhood. We invite you to explore and use these music files to create your own musical compositions and soundscapes. | VisitWe hope that you can visit the historic home of Percy Grainger in White Plains, New York. Rose and Percy Grainger moved here in May 1921. After Rose's death in 1922 Percy married Ella Viola Strom in 1928. Together, they made 7 Cromwell Place their unique home and workspace for the rest of their lives. From Rime Tiles to Free Music Machines, these creatives made this 1890s home their very own.
