The Latest on the Mozart Effect
A recent report now
says that the Mozart effect is another charming urban
legend. The bad news
for the hip urban
professionals: Playing Mozart for your designer baby
will not improve his IQ
or help him get
into that exclusive pre-school. He'll just have to be
admitted to Harvard some
other way.
Of course, we're
all better off for listening to Mozart purely for the
pleasure of it. However, one
wonders that if
playing Mozart sonatas for little Tiffany or Jason could
boost their intelligence,
what would happen
if other composers were played during the kiddies'
developmental time?
LISZT EFFECT: Child speaks
rapidly and extravagantly, but never really says anything
important.
BRUCKNER EFFECT: Child speaks
very slowly and repeats himself frequently. Gains a
reputation for
profundity.
WAGNER EFFECT: Child becomes a
megalomaniac. May eventually marry his sister.
MAHLER EFFECT: Child
continually screamsat great length and volumethat he's
dying.
SCHOENBERG EFFECT: Child never
repeats a word until he's used all the other words in his
vocabulary.
Sometimes talks backwards. Eventually, people stop
listening to him. Child blames
them for their
inability to understand him.
IVES EFFECT: Child develops a
remarkable ability to carry on several separate
conversations
at once.
GLASS EFFECT: Child tends to
repeat himself over and over and over and over and over and
over and over and
over and over and over and over and over and over again.
STRAVINSKY EFFECT: Child is
prone to savage, guttural and profane outbursts that often
lead to fighting
and pandemonium in the preschool.
BRAHMS EFFECT: Child is able
to speak beautifully as long as his sentences contain a
multiple of three
words (3, 6, 9, 12, etc). However, his sentences
containing 4 or 8 words are
strangely
uninspired.
CAGE EFFECT: Child says
nothing for 4 minutes, 33 seconds. PREFERRED BY
9 OUT OF 10 CLASSROOM TEACHERS.
