Musical Leaps and Bounds
Grades Kindergarten-1, Inclusion
Best Software for Kids, 2004, Museum of Science Boston
In My Band, listen to a mixture of timbre, dynamics, and texture using
instruments ranging from a guitar to tubular bells. Sequence singing
characters however you like to compose new tunes and choreograph dance
routines in Let's Dance. The concept of pitch is introduced in Up and Down
with a series of amusing monsters. The taller the monster, the higher the
sound he makes! Kids move characters closer or further away to make
corresponding sounds get quieter or louder as they experiment with dynamics
in Mixing Desk. Create scary, serene, angry, happy, and other songs in Moody
Jukebox, where the influence of musical textures and dynamics on mood is
demonstrated. The Singing Blobs are fun characters that each play a unique
note when clicked, and a sustained note when the button is held down.
