The Municipal Archaeological Museum 'Enrique Escudero de Castro' shows the History of Music through the exhibition Plastihistoria, which tells the evolution of this art through plasticine recreations in 20 situations.

A sample can be visited until next February 17.

Plastihistoria details how music appeared in its first versions, how it has adapted to the evolution of time and how the different styles that make up the contemporary music scene have emerged and do so with a comical and ironic touch.

An initiative that starts with the Educa Foundation.

The mayor of Culture, David Martínez, and the secretary of the Educa Foundation, Jorge Peláez, were responsible for presenting this exhibition.

The interpreters of the Conservatory of Music of Cartagena, Daniel Campoy;

María Ramnial and the teacher of this center, Rosa María Gómez, have put a soundtrack to the presentation of the show through their clarinet recital.

The mayor of Culture, David Martinez, has emphasized the important role of this sample of miniatures carved in plasticine "to teach a funny story, which is usually tedious for young people, through 20 scenes of pleasant way ".

And it is that these characters - made only with plasticine - and the scenes carved with paper and wood, recreate the musical evolution in the world since Prehistory, when the music was used for rituals and prayers, until today showing a scene where the disco music is the protagonist, with dj's and disco gogós.

Passing through the Egyptian Empire;

the Middle Ages;

the Renaissance;

Baroque;

the opera;

the romanticism;

the Zarzuela, the Jazz;

Rock and Pop music;

the oriental music;

the African and the South American.

But in addition, visitors can contemplate the recreations of Spanish genres such as Flamenco and Zarzuela and the evolution of music in theater and cinema.

To complete the History of Music among the 20 showcases there are two dedicated especially to composers such as Mozart and Beethoven.

As stated by the secretary of the Foundation, Jorge Peláez, "one of the greatest challenges at the time of making the exhibition was to gather and show the whole history of music only through 20 scenes", for which they had experts in the subject of the University of Valladolid.

This is the third chapter of Plastihistoria, because this exhibition was preceded by the History of Humanity and the History of Science, which also passed through the Municipal Archaeological Museum in previous years.

All of them are designed for the whole family, not only for the little ones "it tries to teach history globally and in a different way", Peláez finished.
