Udnámekan. A Magical Story of Music

The Udnámekam project. A magical history of music emerges as a consequence of the importance given to the necessary pedagogical work to be carried out with audiences that show reluctance toward contemporary art.The show consists of a musical journey through a magical history of humanity and the music of the world, starting from the idea that neither time nor space exist, but rather are a fiction of the human mind in order to be able to understand and measure its reality. On this journey we will see how music develops from its birth, where music begins to be made without the existence of musical instruments, passing through its different evolutions until reaching current music that does nothing more than reconnect us with the beginning of everything.Our audience will learn, always in a playful, stimulating way and interacting with the artists, the characteristics of music from different eras and places. This journey will have several stops where they will be able to experience the sensation of accompanying the artists with different rhythms, moving their bodies according to the proposed sounds, discovering how and who emits special sonorities, imagining the sound proposals in a drawing, or becoming a conductor and leading the artists in the interpretation of a musical piece.By Lumina Ensemble, Sonia Megías and Eva Guillamón with images by Mitar Terzic.
