That's bloody excellent.

What a great teacher and fun project. Makes me want to go back to school and have him as my teacher and that technology to play with

I wouldn't care if it was Lada... great way to get kids into music. Wish I'd had such stuff when I used to teach.

Absolutely. Back in the day all the kids who weren't much use at "music" got percussion instruments, or maybe a recorder, now they get an Ipad. Why not? If it engages them and they can feel the joy of producing something then it's got to be good.

Cheers,

Yup, music was always a terrible lesson when I was in school because I could never master any of the instruments (though went on to play drums eventually) and they never had enough time to teach anything useful, so it was a complete waste of time. I would've killed to do something like that.
