Ultimate Guide to Music : a Fascinating Introduction to Music and the Instruments of the Orchestra
By: Fullman, Joe
ISBN: 9781783124718
A unique and comprehensive guide to music—complete with a downloadable augmented reality app!
To understand music, you can’t just read about it: you need to hear it. Not only does this engaging guide cover everything about the subject—including what music is and how it’s made, along with introductions to instruments, composers, and recordings—it comes with a free downloadable app. Thanks to this AR feature, you can interact with the orchestra and listen to a piece by Benjamin Britten, performed by the Royal Northern College of Music Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Sir Mark Elder. Each spread includes striking photographs and bite-sized chunks of information, plus “Did you know?” and “Suggested listening” sidebars throughout.
Features:
- A free, downloadable app that uses Augmented Reality and is compatible with both iOS and Android devices with both front- and rear-facing cameras.
- The first AR sequence profiles one instrument from each section of the orchestra—the violin, clarinet, trumpet, and timpani. Users can view each instrument in 360°, zoom in on key areas, and listen to a short recording.
- The second AR sequence profiles the orchestra as a whole, asking users to identify which section of the orchestra the four instruments belong to. Kids can then listen to Britten’s The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.
