Exhibition featuring ethnic music from around the world opens in Crimea
Wednesday, May 29, 2024
On May 17, Russian Wikinews attended one of the latest cultural events in Crimea.
The Museum of Simferopol History, located on Alexander Pushkin Street in the center of the Crimean capital, has opened a new exhibition, unique of its kind. The exhibition of CDs of ethnic music of the peoples of the world called Aboriginal melodies and songs ((ru))Russian language: Туземные мелодии и песни; includes about one hundred factory-made exhibits from the personal collection of Simferopol philophonist — collector of musical recordings — and traveler Viktor Pinchuk. Most publications are difficult to buy in the Russian Federation and Europe. Each disc was released in the artist's country of residence: there are no Western reissues or computer copies in the selection.
"All the specimens presented in the museum were brought by me from travels and expeditions," explained the creator of the exhibition and added, with disappointment, that many of the countries visited are quite poor, and therefore do not have the ability to produce CDs.
About a dozen listeners were present at the opening of the exhibition, where only half of the collection was presented. The exhibition will last two weeks, which will allow not only city residents, but also visitors to get acquainted with it.
