Hi! It’s Maestro here with news and updates from the world of Harmony.   COMMUNITY CHALLENGES We’ve added Community Challenges to help you earn extra stars and bring music back to our world. Challenges are available every day, across every activity in Harmony. Whether you want to play instruments from the Euphony tree or explore levels in Octavia, we’ll reward you at every milestone. Look for the trophy icons to track your progress. Challenges get tougher the more you complete, so keep challenging yourself and climb the leaderboard! TELL US WHAT YOU THINK You might start to see survey questions as you explore. We want to know if Bring Back the Beat is helping you, so we can improve it and bring more people to the world of Harmony. We’re always listening. GOING GLOBAL Our team has laid the groundwork for localization to other regions and languages, so we can speak to people right across your world and bring them into ours. Music is a universal language we can all learn to appreciate. ENCOURAGING WORDS I (that’s me, your friend Maestro) will be sending Notifications now and then to your device. Because I want to see more of you! I’ll bring tips and reminders from the world of Harmony, so you can see how far you’ve come and decide the next steps on your hearing journey. Sometimes we all need a bit of encouragement, right? SPOTIFY UPDATES We’ve improved Repertoire with the help of Richard Reed, professional musician and CI recipient. He’s refined our Spotify recommendations and even created a custom playlist designed for recipients. Listen to a range of artists from Mozart all the way to Johnny Cash. Definitely worth checking out. G'DAY AND KIA ORA Bring Back the Beat will soon officially launch in Australia and New Zealand. Nice!   That’s all for now. I have to get down to the concert hall, there’s a great band playing tonight. Come back to Harmony soon! - Maestro
