"First Class Music is superb.  It is proving to be the ideal way to include music in the home school program for my daughter, Carrie.  She is 13 and has tuberous sclerosis complex and a form of autism with developmental delays, but she thrives on the computer.  This program has beautiful graphics and animation, great lesson presentation, wonderful video clips, crisp sound, and appropriate evaluation techniques.  It's fun, too -- definitely on the must-have list for any school or home!"  Maureen Reyes 

This is a unique program is perfect for an older or higher functioning child - any child with musical aptitude - it is simply the best music education program I have come across!  Both of my children absolutely loved this program!  Great graphics, great sound - true music education!

Scores of first-rate lessons guide children step by step through the basic concepts of music with hundreds of interactive screens, tons of assessed activities, check points, and printable reports. Click on instruments to hear their timbre, lines and dots to discern rhythm, and animated characters to listen to melodies. Identify wrong notes in scales, work with patterns in music, and build your own tunes. Students learn about key elements of music such as dynamics, pitch, rhythm, structure, tempo, and timbre in 15 hours of learning divided into four stages. Each stage contains lessons with names like Levels of Loudness, White Notes, Jumpy, Smooth and Crisp, Voice Types, and Bowed, Blown, or Plucked.
