Listening To Classical Music Increases Your I.Q. (4-Hour Extended Version!) #ProfHowdy

Research shows that listening to music can raise dopamine levels, and multiple studies have found that listening to classical music can be a valuable tool in treating depression. So, listening to classical music while you study will literally make you smarter, but you'll feel better while doing it. Calm down. Classical music is here to help you pass everything! Jessica Grahn, a cognitive scientist at Western University in London, Ontario says that a year of piano lessons, combined with regular practice can increase IQ by as much as three points. So listening to Mozart won't do you or your children any harm and could be the start of a life-long love of classical music.

Here are some suggestions for music to listen to and reasons why it'll help you to focus, relax, study and basically get through this most traumatic period in life.

Bach opens your mind!

Like, really opens your mind. Bach's intricate patterns and gradually unfolding textures are the perfect soundtrack to a little brain expansion. Go for something like the Goldberg Variations to maximise your brain's ability to take everything in.

Some well-chosen snippets of classical music can put you in a more positive and relaxed frame of mind, all the better to either calm you down from exam stress or make you more receptive to new information.

Even science says it helps you concentrate
Besides the controversy over whether or not The Mozart Effect is actually 'a thing' these days, the scientific community generally agrees that if you're revising, classical music is the one for you.

In fact, a study in a French university showed that when students listened to a lecture with classical music playing in the background, they remembered more information than a comparable group of students who took the lecture in silence.

Ludwig van Beethoven (/ˈlʊdvɪɡ væn ˈbeɪt(h)oʊvən/; German: [ˈluːtvɪç fan ˈbeːthoːfn̩] (About this soundlisten); baptised 17 December 1770 – 26 March 1827) was a German composer and pianist. A crucial figure in the transition between the Classical and Romantic eras in Classical music, he remains one of the most recognised and influential of all composers. His best-known compositions include 9 symphonies; 5 piano concertos; 1 violin concerto; 32 piano sonatas; 16 string quartets; a mass, the Missa solemnis; and an opera, Fidelio.

Beethoven was born in Bonn, then the capital of the Electorate of Cologne and part of the Holy Roman Empire. He displayed his musical talents at an early age and was taught by his father Johann van Beethoven and composer and conductor Christian Gottlob Neefe.

At the age of 21 Beethoven moved to Vienna, where he began studying composition with Joseph Haydn and gained a reputation as a virtuoso pianist. He lived in Vienna until his death. By his late 20s his hearing began to deteriorate and by the last decade of his life he was almost completely deaf. In 1811 he gave up conducting and performing in public but continued to compose; many of his most admired works come from these last 15 years of his life. - Wikipedia

Each one of us needs to look after the good of the people around us, asking ourselves, “How can I help?” That’s exactly what J.e.s.u.s did. He didn’t make it easy for Himself by avoiding people’s troubles, but waded right in and helped out.
