tierisch! – Der Klang der Tiere, persönliche Highlights

25 June 2023 | 3.00 PM - 4.00 PM

Sind Tiere musikalisch? Was haben Tiere eigentlich mit Instrumenten zu tun? Diesen Frage und viel mehr wird in einem spannenden Ausstellungs-Rundgang nachgegangen. Unterschiedliche Geschichten werden erzählt und die verschiedensten Exponate gezeigt. Die Kuratorin stellt jene vor, die sie vor eine Herausforderung gestellt, überrascht oder gar beeindruckt haben.

animalistic! – The Sound of Animals

22 October 2021 - 27 August 2023

Animals and music delight children and adults alike. But why does the nightingale sing, but the wolf howls? And how do the cow get on the drum and the elephant into the piano? You can find out in the exhibition.

Institution

The Basel Historical Museum with its three sites is widely regarded as the most important museum of cultural history on the Upper Rhine. It collects, conserves, records and researches objects and artefacts of relevance to our cultural heritage for future generations, tells visitors the story of Basel, and is a place for discourse and engagement with both present and future.

With over 3,300 objects to its name, the Basel Historical Museum is in possession of Switzerland’s largest collection of musical instruments. The ca. 650 European instruments, spread over three floors, span five centuries of music history from the oldest drum dating from 1571 and a highly ornate viola da gamba by Joachim Tielke (ca. 1704) to the Weber Unika Orchestrion of 1925. The 24 cells of the former prison serve as showcases in which visitors can admire instruments while calling up countless samples and additional information on an interactive screen. While touring the museum you will therefore hear all sorts of music, from the familiar to the bizarre.
