Classical Apps win RPS Award
15th May 2014
TouchPress received the Creative Communication Award for their classical music iPad Apps.
RPS comments:
‘TouchPress's three iPad apps - The Orchestra, Beethoven's 9th Symphony and The Liszt Sonata - represent a new pinnacle in the marriage of performance, interpretation and new technology. In shedding light on aspects of our art which so often remain obscure, they possess a rare power to take every listener - regardless of age and expertise - straight to the music's beating heart.’
