The Power of Music

Andrew - 2 m.

Here are some of the astonishing results of the famous Masaru Emoto’s water experiment, which clearly show the effect of the music.

And though the „Mozart Effect” that babies become smarter after listening to Mozart sonata was not proved, anyway the beautiful music definitely has a positive effect on babies for their emotional and intellectual development. Besides, the music may stimulate baby to become more active, to relax, to cheer up... it can really influence the behaviour and the well-being.

We’re listening to the classical and nature music with Andrew 1-2 times a day for about 20 minutes. The effect of listening does not appear simultaneously, but he evidently likes it very much as he usually calms down and starts to listen carefully trying to figure out where the music comes from. We're also in process of attracting Maria (3.5 y.o.) to our regular music sessions...:)

 

To relax and calm down: flute, piano and violin; wood and sea; Vivaldi, Beethoven, Brams, Schubert, Chopin, Debussy;
To reduce anxiety: folk music, children songs, Chopin, Strauss, Rubinstein;
To reduce irritation: Bach, Beethoven;
To stimulate activity (e.g. before feeding the baby): Bach, Schubert, Vivaldi, Tchaikovsky (allegro, allegro moderato);
For the well-being and activity: marches, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, List.
