If music makes you smarter and exercise helps you to think, surely they can turn you into an intelligent person. A team of scientists did experiments on 33 volunteers who were getting better from heart disease following operation. They found that people who exercised while listening to “The Four Seasons” did much better on language ability tests than without music.
Facts suggest that exercise improve the learning ability of people with heart disease. And listening to music is thought to enhance understanding. The volunteers said that they felt better after working out with the music. Scientists proved that music can be good for health and education. It helps reduce stress, sadness, and nervousness; encourages relaxation or sleep; wakes up the body and improves memory and thoughts.
In medical fields, music is used widely for patients who had head hurts before or after operation. “The Four Seasons” was used because of moderate tempo and good results in earlier research. Exercise seems to cause good changes in the nervous system and these changes may have a direct result on learning ability.
Scientist have been studying the results of music on understanding since the early 1950s. By 1990, they used Mozart’s music, especially his violin pieces, to help children with speech disorders. A study showed that students who listened to Mozart’s music can get higher scores in a test.
