Beatles’ 1969 performance focus of exhibit
While John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr were enshrined in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, a new exhibit details creating their final studio album, “Let it Be,” and their famous rooftop performance in 1969.
“The Beatles: Get Back to Let It Be” is an immersive exhibit that features artifacts collected by members of The Beatles and their estates.
“This is not our first time celebrating The Beatles,” said Nwaka Onwusa, chief curator and VP of curatorial affairs. “But to look at this moment in history, specifically to look at “Let it Be,” this is the first time where this story has been told.”
The exhibit takes visitors back to January 1969.
“Fans will get to see three pinnacle moments of this record,” said Onwusa. “Twickenham Studios, at the Apple Studios, and then, of course, the famous rooftop concert that happened with The Beatles.”
Curators, like Onwusa, believe the band’s music is timeless, reflecting issues that are still relevant today.
