People: members near you, best fits first: someone who plays the instrument you’re looking for, wants to play the same piece, or is going to the same concert. While a city has only a few members, you see members elsewhere too.
Three picks a day, chosen for you, with the reasons.
Say hello: send a short note. The conversation opens when they reply, so nobody gets a pile of messages from a stranger.
Teachers: if you teach your instrument, add a teacher’s badge to your profile, and students near you can find you. Looking for lessons? Each city has a Find a teacher page.
It takes a free profile: your first name, what you play (or that you come to listen), about three minutes.
Create your profile.
Also new: Rhapsodle, the daily game. Every day, three 20-second clips of classical music (easy, medium and hard). Listen, then pick the piece from four. Name all three for three stars, keep your streak going, and get your name on today’s board; members collect a point for every piece, on their profile and in the all-time top ten. No account needed to play.
