Bridging Intangible and Tangible Heritage through Music at La Ponte- Ecomuseum

La Ponte-Ecomuseum has organised musicalised itineraries where they combine their research on tangible heritage sites (such as churches and caves) with music - including concerts of medieval music and the reconstruction of a flute from the Palaeolithic period. Through ethnographic study and participation as a musician, this paper looks at two of the La Ponte’s team members and at the musician Xuacu Amieva to explore how their lives as musicians are an integral part of their ecomuseum’s conceptualisation, which has allowed them to present a captivating experience to visitors
