The classical music app for curious listeners
Sonatique is a companion for discovering classical music and understanding why it endures. Whether you are a lifelong listener or hearing your first symphony, it helps you find your next piece, understand what you are hearing and see where it is played live. Free on iPhone and Android.
Understand every piece
Explore this Piece turns any work into a conversation. Choose a guided question and read a clear answer about its structure, its history and what to listen for, written for your level, from newcomer to academic.
How Sonatique explains classical music
The whole repertoire, connected
Browse composers, periods, genres, instruments, ensembles, venues and labels, and follow every link from one to the next. Sonatique does not play music itself: every piece opens in Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, YouTube Music or Amazon Music. Home brings something new each day: Today's Piece, who was born or died on this date, lesser-known works and performances on video.
Explore the history of classical music
Classical concerts near you
The Events tab lists upcoming concerts from tonight onward, with programmes, performers, tickets and directions. Share your approximate location, only if you want to, and Home adds the concerts near you.
