The power of music to affect memory is quite intriguing.
Mozart's music as well as baroque music has a 60 bpm beat
pattern and activate the left and right brain.
The simultaneous left and right brain activity will maximize learning and retention
of information. The information being studied activates the left brain while
the music activates the right brain!
Very interesting:
Activities which engage both sides of the brain at the same time,
like playing an instrument or singing will cause the brain to be more
capable of processing information.
According to The Center for New Discoveries in Learning, learning
potential can be increased a minimum of 5 times by using
music with 60 bpm.
It has also been proven that foreign languages can be learned
with 85-100% efficiency in only a month by using baroque pieces.
