A: Each of the stations are run independently and have their own online presence. There are several online directories where you can find the stations featured in the app. Q: Why does the music occasionally skip? A: When songs are skipping, it is often because 1) that station's server has recently been reset or 2) the internet isn't filling the audio buffer fast enough. Usually these issues are resolved with faster internet, changing to a new station, or they resolve on their own after the server resets. Q: Why are some stations blank at times? A: Some of these stations are controlled by real DJs and if they aren't playing anything at the time or their site is down no music will play. Fortunately we have a variety of channels so you will always have a lot to choose from. For more information, including Terms of Service & Privacy Policy, visit myindieapp.com. Thanks for listening!

Beethoven Walks
Read full descriptionHide full description
Beethoven Walks turns a walk in the woods into a concert hall. Created by Yellow Barn and opened in honor of Beethoven's 250th birthday, Beethoven Walks pairs the music and manuscripts of Ludwig van Beethoven with two trails in Putney, Vermont. Along each trail, Music Posts display reproductions of Beethoven's sketches and autograph manuscripts — the same pages he filled while drawing inspiration from his own walks in nature. At each post, this app plays the work that those pages became. Between the posts are Listening Places: quieter spots that invite a longer pause, where the music and the surrounding landscape can be heard together. Two trails to choose from • Greenwood Trail — 1.3 miles, about 60–70 minutes, with 50 minutes of music across five Music Posts. Hosted by the Greenwood School at 14 Greenwood Lane, Putney VT. • Hannum Trail — 2.5 miles round trip, about 2.5–3 hours, with 90 minutes of music across nine Music Posts. Trailhead at 442 Holland Hill Road, Putney VT. The music Works include the Archduke Trio, the Emperor Concerto, the Pastoral Symphony, the Heiliger Dankgesang from Op. 132, the Kyrie from the Missa Solemnis, An die ferne Geliebte, the Piano Sonatas Op. 79 and Op. 110, and a late Bagatelle. How to use the app Pick a trail and the app guides you through it post by post. Tap a Music Post to start the corresponding work. The screen stays awake while you walk, and the app remembers where you left off so you can return to the same trail next time. We suggest listening without earphones — the music of the woods is part of the performance. Driving directions to each trailhead are included. "It is indeed, as if every tree in the countryside spoke to me, saying 'Holy! Holy!' In the forest enchantment! Who can express it all?" — from Beethoven's sketchbook, 1815 or 1816 A project of Yellow Barn. Special thanks to the Greenwood School for hosting the Greenwood Trail.
