The roots of NMC and its collection can be traced to the installation of a pipe organ (known as the Carthy Organ) in Calgary's Jack Singer Concert Hall in 1987. It subsequently inspired the creation of a new organization known as the Chinook Keyboard Center, which began developing a collection of keyboard instruments in mid-1996.
Chinook Keyboard Center was soon renamed Corners Music Museum and expanded the scope of its collection beyond keyboard instruments to include electronic instruments and sound equipment. In 2003, the two organizations joined forces to become the Cantos Music Foundation, and expanded their presentation of music programs using the collection and gallery spaces. In February 2012, Cantos became the National Music Center.
