Listening to music can even have positive effects on health. The impact of music on everyday life cannot be argued. Music manipulates moods, enriches story lines and envelops minds. This impact occurs on both babies and adults. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Supported Languages: English, French, German, Russian, Spanish ----------------------------------------------------------------- Credits: Rats photography (main menu): Ellen van Deelen Animals artwork: Leo Thom See app in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jROjVPgR-eI&feature=youtu.be Package includes: Violin ------- Vivaldi - Violin Concerto (Cat) Paganini - Violin Concerto No.2 (Penguin) Bizet - L'Arlesienne Suite No. 2 (Polar Bear) Mozart - Piano Concerto no 21 (Duck) Cello ----- Bach - Cello Suite No.1 (Deer) Brahms - Hungarian Dance" (Raccoon) Paganini - 24th Caprice (Lemur) Schubert - Arpeggione Sonata (Rabbit) Clarinet --------- Brahms - Lullaby (Kangaroo) Prokofiev - The Cat from Peter & the Wolf (Hippopotamus) Mozart - Concerto for clarinet and orchestra (Elephant) Chopin - Nocturne Op. 9 (Beagle dog) Trumpet -------- Rossini - William Tell Overture (Panda bear) Haydn - Trumpet concerto (Pig) Paganini - Moto Perpetuo (Squirrels) Wagner - Bridal March (Buldog) Percussions ------------ Mozart - Rondo Alla Turca (Dog) Rimsky Korsakov - Flight of the Bumble Bee (Gorilla) Beethoven's 5th Symphony (Grizzly bear) Mozart - Symphony No. 40 (Rats) Flute ------ Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker (Monkey) Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake (Squirrel) Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld (Dogs) Strauss - Tritsch Tratsch Polka (Zebras) Piano ----- Mozart- Piano Sonata No.16 (Beagle Dog) Bizet - Carmen (Chicks) Mozart - Turkish March (Cat) Chopin - Fantasie Impromptu (Polar bear) Harp ----- Mozart - Theme from the Magic Flute (Cat) Tchaikovsky - Swan Lake (Stork) Beethoven - Für Elise (Shepherd dog) Strauss - The Blue Danube (Weasel) Horn ----- Bach - Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Cat) Mozart - French Horn Concerto No.3 (Pelican) Beethoven - Sonata for Horn and Piano (Koala) Strauss - Radetzky March (Seal) ## Key features - Classical music pieces by famous composers - Animated animals playing instruments - Information on orchestral instruments - Biographies of famous composers - Introduction to music history - Multiple supported languages ## Recent user reviews (10 of 14) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/childrens-classics/id563960209/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-06-30* I have an iPhone 13. I cannot hear any sound while I am in the app. And, as I cannot figure out how to get in touch with a customer service agent, I may just ask my credit card company to withhold my payment. ### 1/5 — Children’s classics *2020-10-19, version 3.8* Quit working, will not play any music. And there is no way to contact anyone. Horrible app. ### 1/5 — Awful *2015-03-03, version 3.4* I thought the concept was great but the app itself is awful. At least one of the audio examples does not even match the instrument being shown. After that, I gave up. Lack of detail and respect for classical music. Horrible tone quality on some of the audio examples. I could go on and on about how to improve this app but I have better things to do with my time. Don't waste your time and money. ### 2/5 — auto-narrator would make it a great app *2012-11-04, version 1.2* I thought the animals playing the instruments were obnoxious, but my 3.75 year old loves it - and since she's the intended audience, I guess it works. The big problem with this app is the lack of any kind of voice-over. Since the app seems to be geared towards the pre-readers, much of its usefulness is lost on the younger set. ### 5/5 — Great for kids *2012-10-27, version 1.1* I downloaded this app for my child and he loved it. The music and the pictures were nice, and I can see why any young kid would enjoy this app. If you have a child I would suggest you give it a buy ### 5/5 — Great app *2012-10-27, version 1.1* I downloaded this app when my girlfriends cousin was in town so I could keep her occupied. She loved the songs and the pictures. I suggest this app for any parent or baby sitter kids love it ### 5/5 — Awesome *2012-10-20, version 1.1* This app is really nice. Its great to soothe younger kids and also it fun for toddlers to see the animals playing musical instruments. ### 5/5 — GREAT FOR KIDS!! *2012-10-15, version 1.1* I absolutely love this app for my 4 year old niece. It keeps her busy and it's very user friendly. She loves all of the adorable animals. I highly recommend this app to anyone with children or a young one in the family :) ### 5/5 — A great resource for today's kids! *2012-10-10, version 1.0* My children love this app. They giggle with every animal animation (and parents never get tired of their child's giggle). But what I love, as a parent, is that my kids can really learn about both the instruments and the composers while having fun! ### 5/5 — Amazing for children *2012-10-10, version 1.0* This application is amazing for children. I work in a school and all of my kids love this app! Keep up the great work ## Frequently asked questions about Children's Classics. ### What is Children's Classics about?
