The Power of Classical Music

Throughout the history of mankind, scientists, mystics, and all kinds of people have sought through music to generate emotional states that connect them with what they needed at that moment. For hundreds of years, there has been a type of music capable of generating states and extremely positive effects on our health: this is CLASSICAL MUSIC.

Classical music in health

The effects of classical music on health have been studied by professionals for decades, and it is nowadays considered a therapy, as it produces improvements in the mind and emotions. Several studies have also shown that this musical genre creates a meditative state and slow brain waves that make it easier to fall asleep.

In addition, listening to classical music a few times a week reduces stress and anxiety levels and thus also lowers blood pressure. According to comparisons made by the University of San Diego between classical, pop, jazz and other styles, people who like classical music have lower blood pressure levels.

During pregnancy, when the mother-to-be listens to classical music, the foetus is stimulated and its development is encouraged. Intrauterine children listen to music from the 24th week of gestation. The most recommended composers are Mozart, Bach and Vivaldi. 

In children, listening to classical music improves skills such as memory, attention and concentration. It stimulates the right area of the brain, enhancing their ability to perform any other artistic activity such as drawing or painting. Therefore, it favours holistic development by acting on multiple areas of their activity. If a child is showing little interest and dedication to schoolwork, studying an instrument can help improve their performance and coordination.

Classical music influences our mood and provokes a series of sensations that involve the whole brain. This influence makes it possible in some cases to reduce pain caused by illness. For example, listening to classical music or opera after an operation or transplant can mean the difference between success and failure. This is due to its ability to reduce anxiety, pain, nausea and even improve the body's immune system responses.

The response of hormones to classical music

Studies by researchers at the University of Helsinki found that frequent listening to classical music leads to an increase in dopamine secretion. This increases learning ability, motivation and memory. Thus, there are added benefits in brain activity.

Classical music is also used in the treatment of neurological conditions such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Tourette's syndrome and different forms of autism.

The Mozart Effect

Various researchers claim the benefits of listening to music composed by Wolfang Amadeus Mozart. Among them, improving spatial-temporal reasoning, short-term memory and improving cases of depression. The precursor of this theory explains why Mozart: because the rhythms and frequencies he uses give a sense of freedom and rightness and allow us to breathe, think and reflect with ease. They also increase our creative potential in a more natural way and give us a permanent feeling of security. Mozart's miracle is to place the human being in unison with universal harmony.
