Music Mind Games provides an ideal beginning to a lifetime of classical music enrichment while promoting the intellectual and social development every child requires and the survival of an important area of our cultural heritage. One need look no further than SiriusXM radio to discover the position of classical music in contemporary culture. It occupies only one of the 75 music channels Sirius offers. This disparity exists in large measure because unlike more popular varieties, classical music requires the comprehension of both its harmony and structure to be fully appreciated. The rewards to the trained listener may vary, but they increase with the level of music knowledge absorbed.
