At
first, I think this myth can connect to Mozart’s songs. Have you ever heard
about the myth that Mozart’s songs can keep children’s mind on something? For
reading, readers have to keep their mind on their book. It sounds like the
Mozart’s songs case. So I start to search the reason why Mozart’s songs can
make concentration and I found it.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Amadeus_Mozart) |
Well, I
start again by specifying about listening to music when reading. First, you
should know that our brains have ability to acknowledge only the important
stimulant. The important stimulant can be the interesting thing or the unknown
thing. For human, they will not survive of they don’t take an interest to the
unknown thing to check if it is dangerous. When they know that thing is safe,
the brain can ignore them. It is the same case with listening to music when
reading. When I listen to some known songs, my brain acknowledges the stimulant
but it doesn’t attend them too much. This is because my brain knows it isn’t
dangerous. So listening to music when reading doesn’t cause any bad effect to
reading. In another view point, it is good for reading because it can add more
interest to some boring book. But the songs mustn’t be new. If the song is new,
the brain will pay attention to it.
Dr. Emma Grey who is a psychologist
has an interesting research about this. She studies about kinds of rhythm which
can stimulate brain.

1.
Science, Humanities and Language
The important skill for this topic is an ability to manage fact and
problem fixing. All of this is under left-side brain. The 50-80 times per
minute rhythm can calm down listener’s mind and help their logic. So listener’s
brain can learn and remember new things better. For example, Man Down – Rihanna,
We Can’t Stop – Miley Cyrus, Halo – Beyonce, Our First Time – Bruno Mars, Wide
Awale – Katy Perry, Breaking Up – Gwen Stefani
2.
Mathematics
The rhythm should be 60-70 times per minute. It can increase listener’s
memory. Dr. Grey’s statistic shows that Mathematics students who listen to
music when studying can get higher score than the average 12% compared with
Mathematics students who don’t listen to music when studying. For example, Fur
Elise – Ludwig van Beethoven, Waltz In D Flat Major Op. 64 No. 1- Frederic
Chopin, Ode to Joy – Ludwig van Beethoven, Swan Lake – Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
3.
English, Drama and Art
The right-side brain processes about creativity. The research shows that
if students listen the emotional Pop or Rock music, they can increase their art
ability. For example, Firework – Katy Perry, Diamonds – Rihanna, Stronger –
Kelly Clarkson
In the conclusion, rhythm affects reading but there is not any bad effect.
