About this app

Melody and Composition is an interactive music education app for exploring how note height, repetition, and the final note shape a melody. Users place notes in eight slots, listen to their creation, and complete guided activities that create rising, falling, or hill-shaped tunes. Separate lessons demonstrate exact, transposed, and backward repetition, as well as finished and unfinished ending feelings based on the last note.
