Pregnancy Music for Fetal
Development ?
Can music affect fetal brain development? If so, what musical composers, genre, or style will make my baby smarter, more creative, more sociable, or more
...better?
These questions are certainly interesting ones for expectant couples. However, despite a rather suspect study suggesting that
Mozart will help your baby's brain grow, the jury is out. The study in question was associated with a Baby-Mozart brain-enhancing product that putatively noted that the particular structure of, say, a Mozart string quartet offered more "formative" stimulation than other genres or even other classical composers like
Bach or
Beethoven. Such claims have been soundly debunked. But that does not mean that prenatal music or concert-going does not have benefits - its simply difficult to prove the case!
That said, there certainly is an intuitive sense that sonic stimulation - at reasonable volumes - sure can't hurt. However, choice of music may offer something to contemplate, especially if you consider that plants apparently flourish - and grow toward - calmer classical music, while actively avoiding blaring heavy metal. A number of studies have contrasted the effects of different forms of music on plant growth, and classical forms always seems to win out when it comes to a plant's preferred choice of musical style. In addition, animal studies indicate that exposure to "chaotic" or "atonal" music alters brain structure in a negative way
. In the case of classical vs. rock music, the issue may be less the notational/chordal structure of the musical composition than the mediated
difference between a cello or an electric guitar run through a "tube-screamer".
The case of atonal music brings up a more interesting question: Is it the non-repetitive structure, complex rhythms, or non-traditional scales associated with discordant music that is the issue here? Or was "chaotic music" played too loudly or on abrasive or "prepared" instruments - via distorted guitars or via quarter-tone pianos (ala
Charles Ives) or via 12-Tone serial operas (ala
Schoenberg)?
It's unlikely that scientists researching in this area took into consideration that difference between, say, Schoenberg's atonal and serial phases. Moreover, this does not answer the question whether a baby prefers calmer, more sonorous or spatial classical music to more intricate or energetic works of the same genre.
Which of course begs other questions: Is the architectonic majesty of classical music, the works of a Bach or Mozart, the possible key to supporting sound fetal development? Will
Shostakovich's frequent minor keys and heavy themes depress my baby? Will
Stockhausen freak him or her out? Will
Morton Feldman put baby to sleep? And how about jazz, rock or techno? What's good for the baby's brain?!?
At any rate, there are tons of musical kits and products out there promising to "
Build Your
Baby's
Brain", calm your baby with "
Healing Lullabies", or tone the synapses with sonic "
Prenatal Education Systems". And certainly, you do not need to buy a "kit" to surround your child with the sounds of Bach, Beethoven, or
Chopin.
Ambient sounds from your stereo will reach your baby, and some women elect to put headphones around their stomachs for a more direct approach. In either case, doctors do advise avoiding loud music that might startle or possibly hurt the baby - as well as avoiding overly long sessions that may "overstimulate". In short, because the jury is still out on how music affects fetal development, experts suggest moderation and mild volume when it comes to sonic stimulation.
Perhaps the best suggestion is to
simply relax and enjoy music the way you normally do - and chances are your baby will relax along with you.
