TESTIMONIALS

I’m tremendously excited to think of young singers without direct access to classical music training using this application.

Singers

nkoda is really clever; it's like a view into the future of making music.

Sir Simon Rattle

Conductor

The ""Maurerische Trauermusik"" (Masonic Funeral Music) certainly is one of the highlights in Mozart's music. He not only combines contrapuntal techniques, but it is one of his rarely composed cantus-firmus pieces. You'll find a Gregorian choral in long notes in it, which origin is unclear. It is assumed that it is a choral related to the fremasons - as the music was composed for the death of two of their members.
