Fun Music Theory/History/Listening App Part III
Want your students to know more about classical music composers, their backgrounds, timeline, and compositions? These two apps are designed to help your students access that information with lots interactive features.
Informusic -Classical Music History & Composers by Informusic
This is an excellent app for high school and music students, and even teachers to gain cross-reference about composers' works and bios. You can search the composer based on the timeline or the names. They have listed each composer's bio with a historic background, representative works, and even provide sheet music to go with the music examples!!
It is such an informational app that serves as a teaching aid to both private lessons as well as music appreciation and history class.
My First Classical Music App HD by Naxos Digital Services Ltd.
Absolutely adore this fun interactive app! Not only my students enjoy it, their families too!! it is so relatable to daily life and easy for my students to make connections with. you can either listen to or read it.
It provides a huge amount of information with categories of When?Where, People (composers), and Instruments. Some of the trivia is very interesting and engaging. For example, Classical Music is often played in outer space to wake astronauts from their sleep on the space shuttle.
Overall, this app is like a classical storybook with interactive features. It is the perfect introduction to classical music for students age 4 and older.

Fun Music Theory/History/Listening App Part II
If you have students who like to learn the proper way of pronouncing music terminology/symbols or those who still call bass clef "left hand", this is a fun app to shovel and learn 50 basic musical notation symbols plus bass and treble clef notes at home or in lessons!
Musicnotes Decks: Music Flash Cards by Musicnotes
There are two modes, "Flashcard mode" (card view) where the symbols are shown but titles and definitions are hidden until you want to see them. "List mode" (list view) allows you to flip through the symbols in an easy-to-browse list for use as a music notation resource.
Fun fact: you can shake the iPad and the card deck will re-shovel again for a new one to play!
Enjoy!!
Enjoy!!
