Music takes in every register: the Baroque of Bach and Vivaldi, Beethoven's symphonies, the jazz of Louis Armstrong and Miles Davis, the rock of the Beatles and Queen, and also hip-hop, electronic music, French chanson and traditions from around the world. You will meet instruments such as the piano, violin, saxophone and electric guitar, basic theory like scales and octaves, and the albums that defined their era.
The quizzes test both your memory of hit songs and your general musical knowledge: composers, bands, labels, festivals. They cost nothing, there are five difficulty levels from very easy to expert, and a brief explanation comes after every answer. Whether you play an instrument or just love to listen, the Music quizzes have something to teach.
