Mozart Brain for iPhone

Using music for brain warm up.. I bought the full version of this game after trying the lite version. There are 10 courses in the full version. I am in course B now, which is a lot harder and longer than the course A, which is also in the lite version. I found out through "cheating" that all the tunes are from classical music genre, ballet, opera, chorus, etc. I saw a "swan lake" and "mother goose". I was told by their support staff that they don't publicize the tunes in the full version on purpose. By choice, I go to work by subway here in Hollywood. I find the game to be very effective to get myself mentally ready and sharp for work in my morning ride. The game is a little bit like Simon Says, although, you are actually playing/repeating real music tunes by memory using the very basic music theory taught in elementary school, which is really cool for people like me who don't know much about music. The guitar and vibraphone in the full version sounds really beautiful and peaceful through headphone, but quite small through my iPod speakers, especially with the train noise. When you pass each level, there is also a link to iTunes for listening to the same melodies in recorded tracks. I found the music to be quite beautiful, some how, after I have just "performed" it by memory myself. Pros: Fun way to prepare mentally for workEasy learning curveGet some music educationNice instrument sounds through headphones Cons: It is more like an exercise than a gameInstrument sounds are too small through speakers
