The Tune Zoo is an easy-to-learn music toy that encourages beginner musicians (children or otherwise!) to explore many of the fundamentals of music: melody and harmony, expression, performance, interaction, collaboration, composition, arrangement and improvisation.

Play solo or jam together in a group; compose your own tunes with looping and key changes, or peek under the hood to explore the mechanics of melody, with harmonies and scales from all around the world – from Blues to Indian Ragas.

There are no rules, high scores, time limits or stress – just open-ended creative, constructive play. Its simple enough for a beginner to pick up immediately, but has enough layers of complexity to interest even the most experienced musician in the family!
