STILL IN THE XXI CENTURY scientists find conclusive evidences that demonstrate that strong brain activity is essential to delight the senses of persons that enjoy Classical Music. Convincingly, they corroborate that there is a nexus between Classical Music and mental capacities.
A reputable team of British and Italian scientists presented primary reason why few people have what is needed to enjoy Classical Music. The British-Italian team pointed out that they do not suggest that heavy-metal or rap music listeners are brain-damaged, but it was evident to them that more elaborated mental capacities are mandatory to enjoy elaborated music.
'BBC Music Magazine' had published an article about long-term studies done at the Maudsley Hospital in London where it was corroborated that there is a link between musical taste and brain power. A scientist explains... "What it means is that a person must be much more mentally evolved to enjoy Classical Music as opposed to a person who does not need to be mentally evolved to enjoy heavy-metal, rap, or similar musics."
At the University of London, Dr. John Jenkins' research unveils that IQ tests render better scores when subjects had listened to Classical Music since early in life. Dr. Jenkins points out that his patients with epilepsy mentally improve when they listen to Classical Music.
Scientists at the American Academy of Neurology compared brains of people who had received at least some training in Classical Music early in their lives and those who never had. They noticed a difference in the distribution and volume of Grey Matter in five areas of their brains as well as augmented cerebellum. "We now know that one person who fosters affinity with more complex music since early in life develops a brain that processes information and intrincate knowledge more accurately," one of the scientists stated.
Therefore, it is not surprising for teachers to notice higher mental performance in high-school students who were exposed to Classical Music since early in their Formative Years.
scientists' work explains why it has not been few the philharmonic
orchestras on downward spiral disappearing for lack of audiences
with intellectual capacities.
on the other hand, young folks in their mid-twenties
become multi-millonaires ~almost overnight~ after
releasing cd's of heavy metal, rap, or similar music.
