Description
The islands of Ibiza and Formentera, especially after the Civil War, underwent a series of social, political and economic changes that influenced the panorama of traditional music, leading to the almost total disappearance of the practice and performance of much of its repertoire, which subsequently forced them to initiate a process of recovery and safeguarding of this.
This recovery and promotion of the repertoire was especially driven by the need to reinforce Ibizan and Formentera identities in the face of a globalized world and mass tourism. This process provoked changes in the repertoire that came to modify its nature and the way of expressing musical culture, and gave rise to the revival movement, as well as an alteration in the collective imaginary of Ibiza and Formentera.
On this basis, the proposal is to analyze the evolution of the construction of identity linked to the repertoire of traditional music from the early twentieth century to the present, from the identity linked to a social and economic class, to become a tool against a massive influx of people and what that entails, and how this evolution has affected the musical genre.
In addition, projects created to ensure the sustainability of the traditional music genre will be exhibited, such as the new digital archive, Cançoner de les Pitiüses, promoted by the Institut d'Estudis Eivissencs, and other projects linked to it. These projects seek to promote music through dissemination, education and research.
