Music for babies

I recently came across a very cool CD which is for mother and baby. Apparently, music played at 60 beats/ minute is very soothing for pre and newborns because it replicates the mother's heart beat. Makes sense.

Also, apparently, when you play music before the baby is born and then play the same tunes after birth, it is very relaxing for even the most elusive sleeper as they are supposed to remember the sounds.

I've not had the chance to test the theory, but others out there may have? Comments welcomed.

So, anyway, even if you haven't got a baby, I can recommend this CD (which I bought just in case, and because I LOVE Mozart piano concertos - even used to be able to play a few from memory as a sprightly little 11 year old).

Here is a link to the Global Journeys site for a listen (scroll down to Mozart for Mother and Baby)...
