## Most critical reviews (6 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Will not sync

*2012-12-08*

Just bought this. But it will not sync as it "requires a newer version of iPod software."  An update check revealed my software is up to date. So essentially, I've
 just been ripped off for $3.99. AVOID.

### 2/5 — Disappointed cut/paste from Wikipedia

*2015-08-19*

This simple app was a disappointment. It merely allows you to click on a composer's name to read the material posted for free on wikipedia. There are no graphics (other than a painting of the composer's face) or listing of what the composer wrote.  There are no music samples. The text cut-and-pasted from wikipedia is merely dumped onto the screen and made slightly difficult to read due to the running together of paragraphs and lack of indentation.  After reading through about a dozen entries, I deleted this app.

### 4/5 — Nice app

*2013-12-31*

For the newbie in this type of music, I enjoy the app very much.  Easy to use and inexpensive

### 5/5 — Perfect for music students

*2012-12-05*

This is exactly what I was looking for!  Very well organized and descriptive account of western music history with detailed history of composers. As the mother of a young piano prodigy, this can help us learn about each composer as he advances in his study.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2012-10-31*

This is the most user friendly historical and educational app for the purpose of learning about the history of classical music I have ever used. I am a musician  with over 30 years professional experience.

### 5/5 — The Great Composers

*2012-08-05*

This is a great app. It is incredibly informative and detailed packed as it is with musical history. The you-tube links are a real bonus.
