Carnegie Hall Listening Adventures
This website is a complex animated interactive game called Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. It is reminiscent of the computer geography/history game: "Where in the World is Carmen San Diego?". Targeted for older kids (ages 6-12), the game has users helping Violet, the main character, on musical adventure, which facilitates learning about classical music and the symphony orchestra.
In addition to these two great websites, here are few other similar sites you might want to check out:
