Pomerania non cantat? Ekspozycje muzealne muzyki kaszubsko-pomorskiej
Journal Title: Audiosfera. Koncepcje-badania-praktyki - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The article is a case study of visually representing the phenomenon of ‘music’ in a museum exhibition. For the purpose of this analysis, the Museum of Writing and Kashubian-Pomeranian Music in Wejherowo (Muzeum Piśmiennictwa i Muzyki Kaszubsko-Pomorskiej w Wejherowie) is identified as the sole museum in Poland that includes the word ‘music’ in its official name. The problems described centre around two issues: definitions connected with the ethnic (regional) and thematic specificity of a museum collection in the region of Kashubia, and technical exhibition strategy in the context of ‘Kashubian-Pomeranian music’. The phenomenon of ‘music’ undergoes a process of reification at the museum exhibit, but it also remains a living phenomenon that integrates the local community owing to the museum’s active engagement in various forms of musical activity.
