Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) is a genius boy from Salzburg, Austria. He composed over 600 songs since he was five years old. His musics have high frequency to stimulate hearing centre in our brain. In early 1990, Dr France H. Rauscher and Dr. Gordon Shaw from University of Wisconsin in their experiment show that students who heard Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major K448 for 10 minutes have a better test result compare to those who don’t listen. People who often listen to classic music, especially Mozart, will improve their spatial tempotral reasoning. This is called Mozart Effect.
Spatial temporal reasoning has a role to create, to keep, to change, and to connect all mental complexity even when there is no stimulation from external. Mathematic, sains, physics, chess game, and music involve this spatial.
Dr. Raucher and Hua Li, genetic expert from Standford University, California, made a research using mice. Mice which heard Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major K448 have a better study and memory test. From those mice, researcher found there is BDNF gen expression improvement (a growth neuron factor). There’s also CREB improvement (subtance to study and memorize) and synapsin I (a synaps protein for connecting between nerve). All this improvement happens in hippocampus. Hippocampus is a part of our brain which have a role in emotion, memory, and navigation. In Alzheimer, hippocampus is attacked first, so the patient has dissorientation and memory disturbance. After Alzheimer pateint hear Mozart sonata there is improvement in their life. For epilepsy this sonata can reduce seizure. This effect cannot be found in other kind of music.
The researchers from Chinesse University of Hongkong in 2003 tell us that masic can improve verbal skill especially in children. Another research from University of Western Sydney tells us that music help recovery and keeps normal growth of the baby.
There are advantages from hearing Mozart, it’s not just listening it’s brain improving….^^
