Why Classical Music Works For Newborns And Parents Alike

By Peter X

The great Martin Luther once said "Music makes people more gentle and meek, more modest and understanding." The classical music on FirstWhispers CDs unequivocally calms newborn babies - but it has an equally important effect on parents. There probably isn't a single moment when a parent of a newborn is a little worried or apprehensive about being a first time or second time or even third time caregiver. Classical music has such a soothing effect, that when it's played in the background of a stressful situation, we're able to change our apprehensions and our perspectives so that we may calm down. And a calm approach to care giving is undoubtedly the best approach to caring for newborns.

Music has the power to transform any situation to one that invites singing and dance - pleasure and comfort. We've all experienced this magical transformation and those who are exposed to this magic at an early age (like newborns) are lucky to discover this shift, which happens to be one of life's most intriguing moments. We can stop doing everything in an instant just to hear a pleasing combination of notes or to enjoy a hypnotic rhythm. In doing so, we begin to change our behavior - we slow down, we change our breathing, and we succumb to its power.

The human condition is one that affords wondrous appreciation of such power no matter what age we are. Whether we're aged and all knowing or whether we're fresh from the womb - classical music captures us all and ultimately creates an environment conducive to peaceful moments and a shared emotion of happiness. These are the ingredients for an instant bond between parent and child because classical music - a time cherished genre - enters the hearts of those who listen to it. And there could be no better instrument for bonding than that which prompts the hearts of mother, father, and child to beat as one, in sync to beautiful sounds.
