International Museum Day – 18th of May!



Nowadays museums are constantly facing industry changes that force them to rethink their traditional mission and find new ways to attract visitors towards more accessible collections. This year's theme for International Museum Day is "Museum collections make connections” and La Casa de la Ciencia accompanies it ...with music!

Eight young artists 4-9 years old and their teachers will perform musical pieces in three halls of the permanent exhibitions of Museum. Previously set out museum displays will explain the contents of the collections in question. The program will comprise works of composers K. and H. Colledge and A. Markov.

• In the cetaceans´ hall you will be able to listen to melodies describing water features: sounds of waterfall, dolphin jumps thanks to the "pizzicato" of violins and the din of the goldfish accompanied by the lively piano rhythm.
• In the invertebrates ‘hall there will be interpreted the play of butterflies and ants. Young violinists will imitate butterfly´s wing beating by moving their fingers in the relentless rhythm, while the hard work of ants will be reflected in a lively and active music.
• Finally, in the minerals´ hall it will sound like you are on fossil and stone pathes with snakes slithering between them.

You are very welcome to attend the concert and see the Museum for free on 18th of May at 12:30, 13:00 and 13:30.
