Summary:
This is an editorial about classical music and its positive effect on social, creative and intellectual development.
Children of all ages should be encouraged to listen to classical music. Classical music needs to be heard in houses all around the world.
One thing that music stresses is listening skills.
Listening is one of the main things involved in cognitive development. According to Jason Heimowitz, a child psychologist from the University of Chicago, classical music has a powerful effect on the intellectual and creative development of children. Up-to-date medical and psychological research in creativity and intelligence shows that listening to classical music can increase verbal, emotional, and spatial intelligence, improve concentration, inspire creative thinking processes, release stress, improve body movement and coordination, and enhance mood and provide motivation.
If children do not experience classical music, then the next generation of children will not only express themselves less, but they will also live stressful, less creative lives.
