{"exhibit":{"title":"Diarios Musicales: Classical Music in Mexico","description":"<h3>by Alexandra King and Ethan Allers<\/h3>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<p>Mexico offers great diversity of music, including traditional folk genres from various regions across the country to all styles of classical music.&nbsp;However, the presence of classical music within the country is not as apparent from a global standpoint.&nbsp;Mexican classical compositions are not known globally, almost all prestigious music schools are found in other countries, and there are very few famous classical musicians to come from Mexico. There is clearly a place for classical music in Mexico as demonstrated by the various orchestras, music programs, and concerts, but why are they not as well-known?&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>By conducting both in-person and questionnaire-style interviews with Mexican musicians, as well as informal discussions with family, we explore classical music's history and role within the educational, social, and cultural landscapes of Mexico. The following exhibit is presented in both English and Spanish.<\/p>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p><\/p>\r\n<p>M\u00e9xico ofrece una gran diversidad de m\u00fasica, desde g\u00e9neros folcl\u00f3ricos tradicionales de varias regiones del pa\u00eds hasta todos los estilos de m\u00fasica cl\u00e1sica. Sin embargo, la presencia de la m\u00fasica cl\u00e1sica dentro del pa\u00eds no es tan evidente desde un punto de vista global. Las composiciones cl\u00e1sicas mexicanas no son conocidas a nivel mundial, casi todas las escuelas de m\u00fasica de prestigio se encuentran en otros pa\u00edses, y son muy pocos los m\u00fasicos cl\u00e1sicos famosos que vienen de M\u00e9xico. Es evidente que hay un lugar para la m\u00fasica cl\u00e1sica como lo demuestran las diversas orquestas, programas musicales y conciertos, pero \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 no son tan conocidos?<\/p>\r\n<p>Al realizar entrevistas en persona y en forma de cuestionario con m\u00fasicos mexicanos, as\u00ed como discusiones informales con la familia, exploramos la historia y el papel de la m\u00fasica cl\u00e1sica dentro de los paisajes educativos, sociales y culturales de M\u00e9xico. La siguiente exhibici\u00f3n se presenta en ingl\u00e9s y espa\u00f1ol.<\/p>","credits":"","featured":0,"public":1,"theme":"","theme_options":null,"slug":"classical-music-mexico","added":"2020-11-26 15:43:06","modified":"2021-09-07 09:14:13","owner_id":11,"use_summary_page":1,"cover_image_file_id":null,"id":4},"item":{"item_type_id":null,"collection_id":2,"featured":0,"public":1,"added":"2020-12-30 16:53:54","modified":"2021-02-12 20:17:15","owner_id":11,"id":85}}
