Contents:
- Alice in Vivaldi's Four Seasons Music Game - This exciting game teams up two masters of their form: Lewis Carroll and Vivaldi. Alice and friends take your child on a journey that combines Through The Looking Glass fantasy with Vivaldi's lush Four Seasons. Guiding your child through the mazes and levels of the games is the Cheshire Cat, whose rhyming wit introduces each game and provides timely help when needed.
- Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Music Game - The great holiday classic brought to life, and your child is inside the action. By mastering unique games and puzzles your child earns 9 magic keys, which are needed to transform the Nutcracker back into a prince. Along the way he or she is accompanied by Usmus, the talking claxon, as the games move through a familiar soundscape rich with familiar favorites.
- Mozart's Magic Flute Music Game - A child's journey through Mozart's operatic masterpiece. Children travel through the story as 'Wolfie', a young hero out to rescue princess Pamina from the clutches of the Queen of the Night. Wolfie saves the day by matching instruments to the sounds they make. Figuring out which instruments are playing in a quartet, and even matching a piece of music to a slightly distorted version of it. All the while he's defeating the evil Queen bit by bit. As your child plays as Wolfie he or she will absorb some of the greatest pieces of music ever composed or played.
