Mission Imagination
The Amazing Music Machine
Professor Wagnersteinmahler von Strauss Jr. believes that they have created the ultimate music-making machine—but they are missing just a few things before the invention is complete! Help the professor complete their machine by working to collect missing sounds and take part in the grand experiment as laboratory assistants.
Focusing on teaching orchestral instrument families, the curriculum of Mission Imagination combines a child’s love of storytelling with the power of symphonic music in an up-close and playful setting. The program’s dynamic format puts kids in the center of the action, making them active participants in their own learning. Help the Professor and the orchestra in their experiment to identify and gather each instrument’s sound so our collection is complete!
