5 Reasons Why You Should Like Classical Music





1 It Helps Your Brain Activities


When you listen to classical music, you can fine tune your brain to:
  • Improve memory
  • Control pain
  • Enhance creativity
  • Increase motivation


2 Reduce Stress and Anxiety

In a hospital study, researchers found that heart patients received the same anti-anxiety benefits from listening to 30 minutes of classical music as they did from taking the drug Valium.


3 Has a Positive Effect on Your Linguistic Abilities

Researchers had found that those who listened to Vivaldi while exercising had increased scores on verbal fluency tests after their workouts compared to those who exercised without music.


4 It Will Make You Smarter

Listening to Mozart (especially the piano concertos) may temporarily increase one's IQ and produce many other beneficial effects on mental function.


5 It is the most complex of all the music genres

Classical music can be explained by professional musicians who analyze the structure, harmony, form and orchestration of a piece. It takes a considerable amount of knowledge and technique to work in depth the structure of classical music and perform it with great level of understanding.This is why classical musicians are more likely to play any other music genre very easily.
