Editorial Review

Listen to the soothing sounds of a Bach melody with this add-on cartridge for the award-winning Neurosmith Music Blocks Mozart Set. With this cartridge, the rainbow-hued blocks each play a few seconds of basic Bach in a variety of digitally created musical formats: voices with flute; vibraphone; a quartet with strings and woodwinds; an ensemble with trumpets, strings, and woodwinds; an ensemble with woodwinds and percussion instruments; and piano. It requires careful listening to distinguish differences between the different musical ensemble styles and between some of the musical sequences that are quite similar. The similarity between musical segments is actually an advantage to the user, as the blocks can be combined in many sequences to produce new melodies that essentially sound like real music. --Marcie Bovetz

This review is from: Neurosmith Music Blocks Cartridge: Bach (Toy)

My young daughters (1 & 3) can't get enough of these music blocks. I agree with others who say "toss out 90% of the rest of your toys and keep this one."

The kids love them all, but if you ask me, Bach and Rhythms of the World are the best (along with the Mozart block that comes with the main unit.) After yor kids are in bed, you'll go downstairs and have one more listen-- I guarantee it.

But enough of this. Go ahead and buy them all and listen for yourself-- for $20 you really can't go wrong. And your kids really will love them all.

We have the original Mozart, Rhythms of the World, and Sounds of the Orchestra in addition to this one. I like Mozart and Bach the best.

For those interested, the Bach tune is BWV 784 Two Part Invention #13 in A minor.

This cartridge may be great but we have no way of knowing because it does not work with the Music Block model that we purchased! Get the music blocks first and make sure they can use the added cartridges.
