Review of HypermusicFascinating! A surplus of sound from the hypermusical instruments and the orchestras that fleshed out the basic compositions for the classical crowd. Enjoyable, encouraging, and touching. |

Review of Hypermusic
You've heard of the Suzuki method of teaching young children to learn to play musical instruments. If that doesn't take, try the Machover method. It will definitely be more fun. This is an informative, interesting piece about an astonishingly bright, inventive guy. It originally aired as a Living on Earth segment and this includes show host Steve Kerwood's intro to Susan Shepard's piece.
