This year each coach and student participant will receive a one-year membership to Naxos Music Library at no extra charge ($225/person value). NML is the most comprehensive collection of classical music available online, with nearly 800,000 tracks plus educational resources including more than 10,000 composer and artist biographies, a pronunciation guide for composer and artist names, comprehensive glossary, and work analyses.

Not only can coaches and students listen on computers – they can also log in anytime, anywhere through NML's iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad app:

The Naxos Online Libraries YouTube channel is also a fantastic resource for coaches and students alike: http://www.youtube.com/user/NaxosOnlineLibraries#p/a

When you log in to the NML site, you will see a playlist with the pieces from this year's Study Guide. Each selection is the complete work, with no narration or commentary.

We are confident that access to this resource will greatly enhance the MLC experience. In addition, coaches and students can use Naxos for their own personal enjoyment, in the classroom, or for any other musical endeavors they’d like.
