    Es poco conocido y es realmente espectacular. Hay que verlo con el guía. Y demasiado barato en los tiempos que estamos.

    (Translated by Google) Highly recommended, at first I thought it would be a place more focused on the gangs but although it has its legacy of these. It is super international, it has instruments from all continents, especially from the places that Carlos Blanco Fadol has toured. Ethnic from the jaguar tribe, Indonesian, popular... All classified and very well exposed. The guide that attended us did not explain everything great. Revoking your visit, also the entrance is cheap 3 euros per adult and cheaper for retirees or disabled. Highly recommended to visit either in family or in a group. (Original) Muy recomendable, en principio creia que seria un lugar mas enfocado a las cuadrillas pero aunque tiene su legado de estas. Es super intermacional tiene instrumentos de todos los continentes sobre todo de los lugares que ha recorrido Carlos Blanco Fadol. Etnicos de la tribu yaguar, indonesia, populares.... Todos clasificados y muy bien expuestos. La guia que nos atendio no lo explico todo genial. Revomiendo su visita, ademas la entrada es barata 3 euros por adulto y por jubilados o discapacidad mas barato. Muy recomendable para visitarlo ya sea em familia o en grupo.

    Here you will witness many different ethnic instruments from all around the world and all possible instrument families. Tip: visiting on a rainy day will make the entrance room itself sound (it is like a huge resonance box that works with the rain collected from three ceiling).

    A very surprising visit indeed, it has a number of important instruments and they are very well cared for. The museum is very well maintained and Carlos Fadol's ingenuity in designing instruments is incredible. Visit highly recommended for my taste.

    Beautiful collection of musical instruments. I never expected to find something like this in this small town. It's worth seeing

    A very interesting museum for its look at native music and especially from countries around the world through musical instruments, its room dedicated to the Yaguas and the restitution of their instrument has fascinated me, the aesthetic part, how it focuses in its culture and the fight to ensure that its traditions and territory do not disappear is worth appreciating and taking into account in other museums. Also thank Elena for her kindness and passion for showing the museum's collection.

    Nice place to visit

  • 5/5 David B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very fascinating museum of musical instruments from all around the world. There is a guide who can fill in some detail but just viewing the wonderful collection of hundreds of stringed, woodwind, brass and percussion instruments is a delight and some water driven examples are unique. WELL WORTH A VISIT!

    Spectacular instrumental ensemble with elements of unique and distant places and people. Thank you Carlos for making it possible. Thank you Elena for doing your best to show us the charm of Carlos's instruments and work. A surprising place in which to immerse yourself in a cultural journey through time and space. We will return, without a doubt. THANK YOU!

    Un lugar a visitar solo, en grupo de amigos o en familia, donde conocer la amplia cultura musical que ha acompañado a lo largo de su recorrido a la humanidad. Es un gustazo conocer historia y anécdotas de la mano de su guía. Visita obligada.

  • 5/5 Sergio M. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I've been several times and every time I go I'm amazed at the large number of instruments there are, as well as the fact that from time to time they change something and add something new to the museum. Honestly, visiting it seems like a great success and I recommend it. They also demonstrate some of the museum's instruments, which makes the visit much more attractive. (Original) He ido varias veces y siempre que voy me quedo flipando con la gran cantidad de instrumentos que hay, además de que de vez en cuando cambian algo y añaden alguna novedad al museo. Sinceramente visitarlo me parece un gran acierto y lo recomiendo. Además hacen demostraciones de algunos de los instrumentos del museo lo que hace mucho más atractiva la visita

  • 5/5 Milagros R. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a luxury to have this museum in Murcia, it is worth getting to know it for how complete it is and the original and rare instruments it has, an instrument made of natural stones and the wonderful sound it makes has impressed me a lot, I will not Imagine that sound can come out of some stones. It has a corridor where you can breathe nature and live the sounds of the jungle with music. (Original) Es un lujo el tener este museo en Murcia, merece la pena el conocerlo por lo completo que es y los instrumentos tan originales y raros que tiene, me ha impresionado mucho un instrumento hecho de piedras naturales y el sonido tan maravilloso que hace, no te imaginas que pueda salir ese sonido de unas piedras. Tiene un pasillo donde se respira naturaleza y se vive los sonidos de la selva con la musica.
