MUSICAL BABIES

Does music exposure improve the mental development of children? Well, my wife--a Musikgarten teacher--would insist yes. A new study seems to confirm it:
A study published in the July issue of Neuropsychology found a link between verbal memory and musical training in children. This builds on other research showing that early exposure to music improves development and even IQ.

Just wait till they do the study with Bill Monroe instead of Mozart!
