Analia Selis launches her latest album at "Bookshop and Music"

The Little Music Lover's Lesson - a new website at Radio Romania Music On Sunday, December 6th, Radio Romania Music launches the new website The Little Music Lover's Lesson - the perfect present which the only classical, jazz & more radio station has found for Saint Nicholas Day.

The website is equally meant for children and their parents, as it is intended to create an alternative for spending free time together, for discovering new information by means of playing.

Beside the basic information about the radio show The Little Music Lover's Lesson and the team that produces it, the website also presents all the editions from the 2009-2010 season, an archive which is updated every two weeks. As the radio show lasts for an hour, so that it is easier to be listened to by the little Internet users, the website will provide a story split in 30-minute episodes, with the second part introduced by a summary of the first episode.

By listening to The Little Music Lover's Lesson, children can acquire new information about music, but they can also participate at a contest. On the website, they will find a video with the contest question, asked by doll Tone Tinytone himself. All children who provide the right answer to this question have the opportunity to see their photograph posted on The Little Music Lover's Lesson website. For children who live in Bucharest, the photographs with the two elves Arietta and Pocchettina and doll Tone Tinytone will be taken on the last Friday of every month, when The Little Music Lover's Lesson goes to "Bookshop and Music" - Humanitas Kretzulescu Bookshop. Next meeting is scheduled on Friday, December 18th, at 18:30.

In addition, on The Little Music Lover's Lesson website, children and their parents will find useful information to answer the questions of the contest or just to learn more about music.

Radio Romania Music has also created an online alternative station, For kids, where one can listen to the shows The Little Music Lover's Lesson from season 2008-2009, and the shows Stories on notes produced by Simona Tanascu from October 2007 to May 2009.

The Little Music Lover's Lesson is a dramatized story with three fairytale characters - two fairies and a doll, performed by Maria Monica Bojin and Simona Tanascu - Radio Romania Music producers and Alina Teianu - actress at the Tandarica Theatre in Bucharest. The play is written and directed by Celina Petrescu.

Stories on notes is a musical educative show, destined to both children and adults: 60 minutes on the portrait of a composer.

The new website The Little Music Lover's Lesson and the station For kids can be accessed on the website muzical.radioromania.ro. On the Radio Romania Music website, the public can also access all the live national and international broadcasts which can be listened to for 7 days after the broadcast date, on the websites of Musical Europe Today and Radio Musical Season.
