Earope specialized musical eartraining - musical eartraning, musictraining, reading rhythms, rhythm reading.

Anders Kjoller with his son Victor Cope media was founded in 1994 by computer engineer and drummer/keyboard player, Anders Kjoller. The reason for the company name is the location of our office in the heart of Wonderful Copenhagen as well as the English term "to cope with.."

The mission statement is "to help evolve the musical knowledge of people in the music arena and to make the tools available to as broad an audience as possible"

The main idea was to create THE eartraining software package for Windows.
The first textual description of Earope* was ready January 1995. It was made by bassist and music teacher, Jesper Kjoller, educated - and later teaching at Conservatory of Rhythmic Music in Copenhagen. Other leading eartraining authorities participated in the project.

The first beta version, having just 3 of the 7 present modules, was made available on the Internet during spring '96 creating a lot of valuable response. Version 1.0 with 5 modules was released in Denmark June 1997 after 2 years of work. The same month, purchasing Earope* over the internet was made possible.
