MakingMusic 2.7 is an online Musical Instrument Encyclopedia, providing a description, an image and a sound clip per instrument.
This is an ongoing Freeware project, with new instruments being added to the database as the research progresses. Each time you launch the application you may find you have access to different amounts of information. The aim of the project is to form a comprehensive database of musical instruments, the criteria being anything from any culture or any age that is used to make music. This may take some time!
If you would like to submit an instrument to the database please email the details by using the link in the application ‘Help’ menu.

This program has disappeared, and I am SO disappointed. If you downloaded it, as freeware, and could send me a copy, I would be thrilled. I have been waiting for our grandson to be big enough to begin his appreciation, and today was the day. I opened our copy of the program, version 2.5.1, and found the database COMPLETELY EMPTY. I am sick about it.
Any idea what happened? David Ahmed’s website and all downloads have disappeared completely.

I received permission from David Ahmed to place the MakingMusic application on my website. All my visitors have enjoyed it immensely. The link to the database is no longer working and the program is blank. I assume the database and David Ahmed’s website has been removed or moved, and am also very disappointed. What an amazing project!
If anyone finds out what happened and how we can access this program again, please let me know. Thanks.

This was the best software music encyclopedia I have ever used. It was so well designed and thought out. The database was incredible! What a great developer David is. I would have gladly paid $15-20 for this to keep it going and I think a lot of others would have too. Please David Ahmed get this thing back up and running. Please include the database with the future versions. I really miss this!
Best,
