Parents will play classical music to their small children because they think that it will make their child intelligent. The child will not be smarter but if they were listening to a classical piece while putting together a puzzle they would put it together faster. Classical music clears your mind and when your mind is clear you work better at tasks. 

Parents will put their baby through an experiment that is called the Mozart Effect. This experiment exposes the baby to classical music to see if the child's IQ will increase in the near future. The study of the Mozart Effect was studied in 1933 on a group of college students. After the students listened to the classical pieces they took a test and their test scores were improved. The Mozart Effect was proven to be successful. This information comes from Emiliana R. Simon-Thomas.

The Importance of Classical Music

There is an important reason for every piece of music. Every song has a meaning behind it. It does not have to have words in the song to explain the meaning either. People may think that classical music is not important and doesn't have meaning to it because there are no lyrics to the songs.

Some people say that classical music makes you smarter. Classical music helps calm you and clear your mind. When studying classical music can be a helpful tool. Classical music clears your mind this makes it better to concentrate. If you are fully focused on what you are studying you will learn more and your memory will expand. This is a way that classical music can make you smarter.

Scientist have been asked if classical music can make a child smarter and expand their intelligence. There is answers to this. Some people think that classical music does expand a child's intelligence.  Classical music doesn't teach a child to be violent, use profanity, or worry about knowing all the words to a song. Classical music is peaceful. There is no understanding to it. According to Tina Serota, in her article, The Classical Music Education of a Generation.

"Classical music not only nurtures our soul but grows our mind in ways that have been substantiated by myriad of studies over recent years. Exposing the very young to classical music has been documented to help develop language skills, reasoning, and spatial intelligence."

Listening to a classical piece does not get old as quick as modern day music does. Once you learn the words to one song and you know them by memory without messing up it gets old. Classical music does not boring or old  because it is not made of words that you are rushing to memorize.

The Real Meaning of Classical Music

Copyright

Many people think that there is no purpose in classical music being used. People refer to it as boring, elevator music. However, when you are listening to some sort of classical music you are calm and more focused.

Classical music is similar to all other music because all music has instruments and instrumental parts. All pieces of music have a purpose. Classical music has a  purpose to every piece, but it does not express it by using words. According to a website article, “Does Music Help You Study?, “Music with no lyrics allows students to study and concentrate without being distracted by words.” Modern day music such as hip hop, country, rap, rock/metal, and gospel use words to explain the purpose of the song.

Classical music shows emotion through the instruments. When people think that classical music is just elevator music they are wrong. A classical piece of music has a meaning behind it just as a country song would.

When you listen to different pieces of classical music you feel different emotions. Some pieces of classical music are slow and depressing. When classical musicians wrote these pieces they were most likely going through hard and depressing times. During the classical period people had more depressing times than happy. Other pieces are played fast. These pieces are probably used for races or fights from the period it was wrote.

Classical music is used in many older cartoon shows or older movies. When cartoons first became popular there was no talking in them. If the characters were running around there was fast playing classical music in them. This was the same for TV shows and movies.

Introduction

I chose this topic because people think that Classical music is boring. Many people do not listen to Classical music because it is so old. 

Classical music is made of melodies and rhythms. The majority of the population wants music that has lyrics. Modern day music is not made of just rhythms and melodies anymore.

People listen to music while reading, studying, and doing homework for classes. When you listen to music with words it is harder to concentrate. You focus on the words in the music more than you do with the work you are doing or information you are studying. 

Meaning

Classical music makes the human body feel calm. The rhythm of Classical music causes the brain to release serotonin. Serotonin is released in the brain when a person sees something that is appealing to them. Serotonin makes the human body feel mellow. When the body is calm, it makes it easier for the brain to process things.
