Introducing kids to the soundtrack of their lives and explore a host of genres, artists, and the technical and scientific side of music.

Budding music fans will love discovering musical geniuses of every era, from Mozart and classical music to Bowie and pop, as well as finding out how music is created and what links it all together.
