Does Music Make Us Smarter?
After listening to classical music, adults can do certain spatial tasks more quickly, such as putting together a jigsaw puzzle.

Why does this happen? The classical music pathways in our brain are similar to the pathways we
use for spatial reasoning. When we listen to classical music, the spatial pathways are "turned on" and ready to be used.

This priming makes it easier to work a puzzle quickly. But the effect lasts only a short time. Our improved spatial skills fade about an hour after we stop listening to the music.

Why Classical Music?
The music most people call "classical"--works by composers such as Bach, Beethoven, or Mozart--is different from music such as rock and
country. Classical music has a more complex musical structure. Babies as young as 3 months can pick out that structure and even recognize
classical music selections they have heard before.

Researchers think the complexity of classical music is what primes the brain to solve spatial
problems more quickly. So listening to classical music may have different effects on the brain than listening to other types of music.

This doesn't mean that other types of music aren't good. Listening to any kind of music helps
build music-related pathways in the brain. And music can have positive effects on our moods that may make learning easier.
