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've always wanted to try the headphones on the belly thing, but I'll save that for when I'm preggo. shifty.gif Ah and Cristy, it worked cause I usually fail or nearly pass some of my test but after listening to a little mozart before bed I did better! Or maybe the test was easy. whistling.gif

Yeah Bach, Mozart etc... that classical music (not the new stuff really) has vibrating notes supposedly that makes your brain absorb wavelengths you can't even imagine. But I dunno how they came up with that conclusion. Regardless, it works thumbsup.gif

I just have a guess on this, but it might be because most modern music is made with digital equipment these days, and many audiophiles say that digital sound isn't even real sound, but a series of 1010111001 or whatever. Anyway, older music was recorded on analog equipment, such as vinyl, which, when you play a real vinyl record on a turntable, you are hearing the actual vibrations of the grooves on the vinyl.

Supposedly, when you're listening to vinyl, rather than a CD or an mp3, you're hearing/feeling vibes that you don't get with digital equipment. This may be why analog mixers are some of the most popular in night clubs; the sound is "warmer" than with digital mixers and dancers get the vibe to dance more.

Those ideas wouldn't be exclusive to classical music, though.

That's just some stuff I've read before, though. I don't really know about the validity of that information, but it doesn't sound too far off to me. =P

I don’t get it. How the headphone does have any effect on infant anyways? At the same time you mentioned:

Some members even mentioned the working result. Aren’t the music from headphones is digital? The music you hear from the headphone aren’t "REAL" music either because it's modify?
