## What is Sonatique?

Sonatique is a companion for discovering classical music and understanding why it endures.

From the plainchant of the medieval church to the symphonies of the twentieth century, classical music is one of the great achievements of human culture. It can also feel like a closed world, full of unfamiliar names, foreign titles, and centuries of history nobody explains. Sonatique was built to open that world. Whether you are a lifelong listener or hearing your first symphony, it helps you find your next piece and understand what you are hearing, without needing a degree in musicology.

A NEW WORK EVERY DAY
Today's Piece brings you a handpicked composition each morning, chosen for its beauty, its importance, or the story behind it. It is a simple habit that steadily widens your ear, one work at a time.

THE COMPLETE CATALOGUE
Explore the repertoire the way it is actually connected. Browse by composer, genre, period, instrument, ensemble, conductor, singer, record label, and concert hall, and move freely between them. Read about a composer, follow a link to one of their concertos, see who has recorded it, and discover the ensemble that plays it. Search the whole catalogue directly when you already know what you are looking for. Every discovery leads naturally to the next.

UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE HEARING
Every piece comes with clear, readable context written in plain language, along with guided questions that draw your attention to what matters in the music. Tell Sonatique how much you already know - anywhere from newcomer to academic - and every explanation is written for that level, so you get an introduction where you need one and real technical depth where you want it. No jargon, no gatekeeping. Just the background that turns a piece you do not know into one you understand and remember.

ON THIS DAY
Classical music has a living history, and much of it happened on today's date. See the premieres, the births, and the moments that shaped the repertoire, and let the calendar guide your listening.

FIND WHERE TO LISTEN
When a piece or an artist catches your interest, Sonatique points you straight to streaming services and official links, so you can go from reading about the music to hearing it in a single tap.

YOUR PERSONAL LIBRARY
Save the works, composers, and recordings you love into collections and return to them whenever you like. Your library grows with your taste and becomes a record of your own journey through the music.

IN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE
Sonatique speaks English, German, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Dutch, and Portuguese - not just the interface, but the descriptions and explanations of the music itself.

MADE FOR LISTENERS AND MUSICIANS ALIKE
Sonatique is designed to be calm, refined, and quietly beautiful to use. It respects your attention, whether you have five minutes on a commute or a whole evening to explore. Newcomers get a way in. Seasoned listeners and performers get a fast, well-organised reference to the repertoire they already love.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-26

Home is new. Each day it brings together today's piece, who was born or died on this date, performances on video, and lesser-known works worth hearing. You can now share your approximate location to see concerts near you — it's used only for that. The Events tab and concert pages are clearer, and piece pages more refined. Plus small fixes throughout.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-09-08

Every piece now tells its story in one place. Open a work and listening is a tap away, with the story behind it, its movements, upcoming performances, and recordings following as you scroll - no more hunting through tabs. We've also made a few design changes so getting around the app is easier, including a new menu. Plus small fixes and refinements throughout.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-05

Sonatique now shows you the concerts. The new Events tab gathers what's playing from tonight onward — a For you row from the works, composers, and places you already care about. Tap one for the program, the performers, tickets, and directions. The Images tab is sharper too, plus small fixes and refinements throughout.

### 1.0.9 — 2026-08-21

- Sonatique now shows you the pictures. The new Images tab brings together portraits, manuscripts, interiors, performances, and documents from the catalog — search, filter by kind, tap one, and see the works, composers, and places it belongs to.
- There's also a lighter tab bar, plus small fixes and refinements.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-08-11

Sonatique now greets you properly. A new welcome shows what the app holds - a repertoire to browse, a piece worth hearing every day, notes pitched at your level, collections of your own - and asks for your language first, so the whole introduction speaks it. New artwork throughout, along with small fixes and refinements.
