Sound Museum: Three Women is an album by the American jazz composer and saxophonist Ornette Coleman recorded in 1996 and released on the Harmolodic/Verve label.[1] It is dedicated to Don Cherry and Ed Blackwell.[2]

The album is the companion to Sound Museum: Hidden Man. Both albums feature the same thirteen instrumental pieces, performed by the same quartet, plus a song. Coleman wrote: "Sound Museum exists in two CD renditions of the same compositions played differently in each rendition. This concept was done to show music harmolodically. In the Harmolodic world the concept of space and time are not past or future but the present."[2]
