Humans need to realize that listening to music is only a sliver of its potential...
Learn how to play an instrument people... music is in our DNA, it's the fabric of creation, it's math put into vibration. It is everything... it is.
👍👍👍
it's what we are. thats why even a baby can recognize it's meaning instantly. I fell in love with music as a baby
Thank you Jessica and TED Talks team.
Jessica Grahn is amazing! I had the pleasure to meet her in Günne this year. She's a very inspiring neuroscientist!
I had seen a paper from Stanford University a while back that was saying that the tempo ranges can enhance retention. I took from it that 40-60 BPM led to better learning.
Some parents would enroll their kids into music programs or with private teachers to enhance their intelligence and academic success. When we're young we have a lot of free time so learning to play an instrument is more doable. Older adults tend to choose activities that are fun and don't require major time adjustments such as having to practice an hour a week.
as a classically trained pianist, composer and fan of 'deep listening', Mozart's one of the last things I would consider listening to to 'improve myself'. I agree with everyone who says this is a marketing campaign. It doesn't have to be Mozart, there is plenty of other music that can change the brain. This is the first TED talk I have disliked

Music heals. Combined with Massage Therapy, Audio Therapy (music) is very effective.
My daughter is one of those musical experiment impacts I have done even when my Chinese wife was pregnant by putting my studio headphones on my wife's tummy. Especially, Baroque music tends to be so mathematical building blocks. My daughter started reading when she was 3, she will be 20 this August and as a product of mostly homeschooling and classical education - she plays drums, keyboard, guitar, bass, love singing, but she enjoy more in prophetic dancing - even while studying fashion design.
why did you say my chinese wife. there was no need to mention that she was chinese. are you boosting and do you have a picture
Metal music is my best friend.
Does this dismantle the claim made by the "music can make your kid a genius" industry!
Music Therapy woop woop!
She talked about how "listening" to music didn't help developing the brain, but I would have loved to hear what she had to say about "playing" music.
the neurochemistry study she cited specifically said music DOES enhance cognition. there's just no study tracking it when it comes to brain growth in fetuses. idk if thats even possible to do
im making an investigatory project about this topic and this video helped my so much th an k yo u
Playing a musical instrument does improve math but it takes a lot of work. This is in a later TED
The so-called "Mozart Effect" is just a marketing tool--such "effects" can be culled just the same from listening to Antonio Carlos Jobim, Miles Davis, Nestor Torres, or Debussy. It all depends on what music inspires you.
Unfortunately, neuroscientists are at a loss discussing musical form or meaning--that's best left to musicologists. The Mozart Effect was originally commissioned by the American Music Manufacturers Association and Yamaha Corporation to stimulate sales.
The presenter said that they had proven that music did not enhance cognitive function when in fact the data she presented proved that music may not be the best therapeutic tool for all people. For some music may be helpful for others a different therapy may be called for.
It's true that the Mozart Effect was a marketing ploy, but the same can be said about ADHD. Beneath the ploy is a real, measurable phenomenon.
Hidden in Mozart, Bach, and others, are incredibly deep tonal patterns which compel the formation of new neural pathways to accommodate the pattern's cognition.
Which Patrick Stewart is she talking about ?

Forgive me. If you meant the "classics" of all major currents, styles, and genres, then yes of course, we're in agreement.
music can improve one's conceptualization of grouping and parsing of sequence.
Wonderful!
Great video.
You think? Who are you to say that the music of Jobim, Davis, Coltrane, Palmieri, Shankar, Schoenberg or Scriabin are any less complex? You can't qualify that statement.
She's confused.
The charts she presented clearly showed music enhancing brain performance. Even the group that preferred Steven King stories did much better while listening to Mozart. She also cited the study on neurochemistry of music showing music improves cognitive performance.
But then she goes right back to saying music WON'T improve your baby's brain.
Tragically, for our youngest children we do not follow up on the passive listening to music with active musical engagement and participation. This is like not letting our children use and practice their native language until they are in 4th grade. And then asking them to learn English as a foreign language.
How can music serve as the wheels under the vehicle of a child's education if we don't put them under the cart? Try pulling a box heavily loaded with books of knowledge across the road without wheels for a full day.
9:23. Conducted by well respected composers? I'm certain there are no recordings in existence featuring Mozart OR Albinoni as the conductor of the recorded performance...
dont be picky
only classical?
She is rightfully skeptical that only passively listening to music without effort does not contribute to measurable increases in intelligence later. Many of the participants in the early research were people who studied an instrument as children.
Recent research in 2015 has shown that babies are born processing language as music at birth. Music has its influence on much more discrete abilities in young children. We know that babies can already memorize and recognize pieces of music from a young age. But this is only the starting point. It has to be followed up with.
Listening to music is only the first stage of preparation for the effort required later. It is opening the door for what is possible. In the same way, children listen to human language for months before they finally have the physical ability to try speaking. I find it much easier to start a preschooler with music lessons if they have been listening to music as babies and toddlers. Familiarity breeds ability. So we keep listening as well as do the work. As she says music can assist us in doing the heavy lifting of real brain activity.
We find that music students who are actively listening to music at home are much more motivated to practice. The music is more accessible to them. Please let me underline the word active. The active work of music learning makes the world of learning more accessible for our children at many levels. In regard to motivation, resilience, motor skills and influences of the executive function (which helps with impulse control) music study can help to do much of the heavy lifting in education.
What do most teachers complain about today? Children are not receptive, motivated or have long attention spans.
No I think it's because Mozart's or a classical piece music is complex causing the brain to be used more.
why didn't I think of that?

Great talk, that audience sucked, though, she was funny and smart and they just sat there like robots
***** maybe they we're robots
1:25 she forgot cofee!!
I think German composers are the best.

Listening to music is relaxing but does the music have to be by Mozart to improve your memory / cognitive skills? What about other composers like Beethoven, Chopin and others? What about those who are musicians (play music regularly) vs. the ones who listen passively on the radio, CDs, etc.?
And...
Boosting a child's intelligence is "big" business. Used to be a product "Baby Einstein" by Disney eventually got pulled off toy store shelves for false advertising / exaggerated claims.
I would have said similar doubts... however I was trained as a violinist from a young age... later added fiddle... and ive ALWAYS felt a different energy with Mozart... I think its because Mozart to me... is a development on the earlier structured things like... bach for example.. or Vivaldi. Mozart however.. has that true bass line strength yo can count on from earlier.... but with the "modern" additions of... more... intuitive types of lines of melody that Mozart uses... its combined... the structure WITH melodies filling themselves... or.. changing variations... ( to me... Mozart was like the classical version of the beginning of jazz- a base structure with variations of melodies and offshoots.... ) - that's just MYYYY opinion... but LONG before I ever heard of "magic Mozart " blah blah... id felt this transcendental aspect to the music as I learned, studied and performed Mozart.. :D
Thanks for your comments...
The Mozart effect was based on research done from the 1990s with the music of Mozart out of all the Classical composers. Don't think there was any scientific studies done to compare results with other composers like Hayden, Beethoven, Chopin, and others. A friend got into playing piano several years ago after he stopped for many years. He is mainly into the music of Claude Debussy and tends to find music from the 19th c. and after to be relaxing. He can play certain pieces like "Clair de Lune" on piano but find early music to be highly structured and stylized. He hated trills, mordents or anything that sounds technical to the ear. Mozart put in long trills near the end of many pieces. Some Chopin pieces have trills. I don't find trills intimidating but my friend dislike music that has trills.
I get into polyphonic music of Bach on a keyboard. Your brain is constantly bombarded with 2 or more melody likes like a 2-part Invention or a fugue. Some of the time you have a melodic line in the Bass with the Treble line doing the accompaniment (melody & bass flipped) which is interesting and get your brain working.
please re read my statement, I said "or any other classical piece"
ok
good
Try Bach.
dubstep FOREVAAARRRRRRR!!! (I didn't watch the vid)
ADHD is a condition of the way the brain responds. I don't see a ploy there nor a correlation. I'm also not saying that European Classical music has no merits, of course, the Classics have great merit. But when the promotion of said music is done to the stark exclusion of other genres that could produce the same results, then to me its just a snake oil potion. The original test involved only a short part of a Mozart Sonata. The sponsors would've had even more success extolling music in general.
Wheres your study that dis-proves???..Saying "No" is very brave and usually silly when it comes to theorem. Your so focused on the micro experiences of music as if it has to create a specific consequence that your tangled in your own internal issue. Music provides discipline, philosophical reflection and randomness and so many other things. So many that one could consume their whole life in music whilst generating intellect and co-ordination. Just as a man who swings a hammer all day.
Whats more important than your whole speech is the idea that any sensory influence/offering is going to provide a cognitive experience/reaction which in turn sources knowledge/brain activity. By putting some audio baby monitor on your tummy may by study seem silly, but hey, any new experience that is of no direct harm to the baby, can only provide or build activity.
If the task of your speech was to re-inform us all of the "billion dollar industry" that is possibly manipulating us into buying fake products then ok, well done. Maybe change the title next time.
it's absurd to draw any conclusions over the study about such a stupid and irrelevant single question, especially a type of question nobody would ever think about in their lives for any reason, ESPECIALLY with such a low % difference and the fact that they're all right around 50-60% which is indicative of people just guessing... if I was seriously part of a study like that I wouldnt even try, I'd just pick one and not even think about it because I was bored out of my mind sitting there for 15 minutes doing nothing prior
that said, it seems somewhat obvious to me however that godly structured music like bach and mozart would be beneficial for people's minds, especially developing infants (its already known thats how perfect pitch is develloped...)
the only relevant way to measure this sort of effect are LONG TERM studies that compare people whose parents played them all this music to their infants versus others that didnt, and compare their intelligences and things like what % became geniuses etc

waste of 15 minutes, the answer is alpha brainwaves. google it.
I'm 4 minutes into the video and haven't learnt anything new or useful yet. I dislike ranty talks that take a long time to get to the point.
u stupid
good
