From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

JoyTunes is a private Israeli company, established in 2010, publishing computer and mobile games that are controlled by real musical instruments. The games are intended to teach music and encourage practice by transforming routine music exercises to fun and engaging games. As of April 2012, JoyTunes released two games: JoyTunes Recorder[1] (PC, Mac, iPad) - for children learning to play the recorder instrument, and the Piano Dust Buster[2] (iPad) that is activated by a real piano or keyboard.

On October 2010 JoyTunes was selected as a Silver Winner in the global MassChallenge startup competition[3] . JoyTunes first product for the recorder won the Fall 2010 Parents' Choice Awards in the software category,[4] the "World Summit Awards 2011"[5] for most creative e-content, and two "Best Tools for Schools" awards at the NAMM show.
