In 1989, when composer, longtime music teacher, and ASCAP member Joe Procopio was writing a new song on his piano, he noted that every time he played a certain section with very high notes, his daughter’s pet birds started singing wildly. This gave him the idea to rewrite some of his songs and record them with the high notes and pets in mind. Soon after, people and pets from all over the world fell in love with Pethoven, and the phenomenon exploded into newspapers, magazines, and radio spots around the world.

While the timeless music has not changed, Pethoven has recently reemerged with success in a completely digital format and delivery, allowing a new generation of pet lovers around the world to download Pethoven into their digital music collections and players.

Pethoven is beautiful music composed and recorded in a special way for both pets and their owners. The 12 songs are layered with the same melodies and harmonies two, three, and sometimes four octaves above the normal level. The higher frequencies are pleasing to people and, at the least, attractive to most pets.

“While I cannot guarantee that Pethoven will be loved by you and your pet,” says Procopio, “I can say that it is designed to be pleasing for both people and pets. Many people from all over the world have written to me to tell me that both they and their pets love Pethoven. I hope that you and your pet will love it too.”
