"I have always felt there were remarkable deep-rooted similarities between classical music as compared to rock and roll, or even some pop music," said Shakhruz Ashirov, founder and CEO of ADS Software Group Inc. "Regrettably, the modern media doesn't support classical music very well, so a large percentage of the younger audience is never exposed to it. We currently have plans to add up to a 100 compositions, a new music memorizing game, as well as localize the app into major languages and some other features."
Pricing and Availability: Classical Music 1.0 is only $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category. A free Lite version is also available. Review copies are available upon request.
