The 'Mozart Effect' - fact or fiction?

There has been a long standing belief that Music has an enhancing effect upon our Health and Cognitive Development. In this programme Paul Robertson explores whether the current popularisation of Mozart's music in this role has any foundation in fact.

Many serious researchers tend to favour the benificial effect of music in general but increasingly debunk the idea that Mozart has any particular efficacy.

On the other hand a number of leading scientists have concluded that (amongst others) Mozart's special compositional genius does seem, so to speak, to 'reach parts other music cannot reach'.

We invite you to draw your own conclusions.
