General
The Maestro Ensemble & Symphony board game hands players the baton to conduct their own orchestra. This unique game guarantees wall-to-wall musical fun, whether you're a seasoned musician or you can't read a note, whether you're young or old. Whoever composes 60 minutes of music the fastest is the winner, and every piece of music you can pick up during the game has a limited duration of four or eight minutes and every time you pick up a four-minute piece, you get to add a note to the board. This game has been developed for players aged 7 and up, takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes to play, and between two and six players can get involved.
Music Maestro!
Of course, to make classical music, you need some instruments and some musical score, but luckily you get these 'in game', so no real instruments are needed to play the game. While playing, you buy up instrument cards using your start capital, or rent instruments from other players at half the purchase price. Chance cards throw a spanner in the works, since they can throw up extra cash, minutes of music, or a free instrument. Other cards included in the game have QR codes so you can listen directly to the piece of music you're conducting.
Maestro Symphony
If you're a more advanced player or you're looking for more of a challenge, then you can also play Maestro Symphony with this edition of the game. Simply flip the board to use the other side and play with the cards that aren't marked with 'E' for 'Ensemble' to play in 'Symphony mode' instead. The aim of this game is collect as many instruments and soloists as possible so you can put on as varied a music programme as you can. While the game ends as soon as a player has made 180 minutes of music, whoever has scored the most points wins and is crowned the Maestro!
