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 still cannot believe instrument players become smarter. What causes them to become more intelligent? Memorization of notes and pages?

That’s all?

Along with that, plus your brain picks up on the intricate ways that composers use techniques to make you feel or notice something. As you play it, your brain picks that up and develops new ways to tackle problems. I notice that when I play, I notice new things and it somehow makes me smarter.

well, thats my two cents.
