In 1993 researchers from the University of Wisconsin and UC Irvine discoved that listening to a Mozart Sonata increased IQ. This idea called the "Mozart Effect" has been confirmed by various studies around the world.

The study suggested that IQ rises 8 to 9 points when listening to Mozart compared to silence. Other studies have suggested improved test scores after listening to Mozart Piano Concertos. Why does this occur?

My teacher told me about this earlier before and I tried it, it actually worked for me. I was surprised. shifty.gif

I believe it... I want my lady to put head phones on her belly for my children to listen to classical music. Classical music in itself is poetic and powerful.

I actually have a friend whose mom listened to a lot of classical music and put headphones on her stomach while she was pregnant (with all three of her kids) and they are damn smart... and very musically talented, but they were also pushed into music lessons when they were all three. They played classical music every single day in the house for hours.

They're also extremely hardworking, so that probably plays in some, too. :P
