What effect does classical music have on the nervous system?
I am doing a science project on this topic – and whatever info or answers I get, help!! (So basically I’m just wondering what you think the effect of classical music is on the nervous system or what you do know about this. REMEMBER, your opinion helps…a lot!! -Thanks!
no effect at all, something called the "Mozart effect", the supposed relaxation and concentration you think you feel when you listen to classical music is only temporary, about 7 mins. It does not make smarter at all, it is only a myth.

Honestly if it is a science project opinion means nothing. Science has to be verifiable and repeatable. Just lay out a classic experiment doing scientific method.
For example hypothesize that classic music has a calming effect. Grab a sample of people and take their pulse before and after listening to the music. Record your results and viola. Simple.

All music has rhythm. It is movement heard, felt, and seen. Listening to Mozart’s music and focusing on rhythm alone involves attention to complex elements that provide temporal cohesion in music and organizes and structures sounds in time. Rhythm embodies beat, pulse, accent, meter, duration, tempo, density, texture, form, and rhythmic patterns. If one were to listen to music with all these in mind, certainly the brain will be well stimulated. Yet musical elements go beyond rhythm to include melody, harmony, timbre, style, dynamics, meaning and emotion. Eurhythmics activates a feeling for music which, in Greek terms, includes dance and drama. A sense of order and balance is created internally, and imagination develops simultaneously. Such an approach to music education encompasses cognitive, affective, and psychomotor behaviors.

Music is the common language of the world that everyone understands. Soothing soft classical music calms down the spirit which relaxes the material body and allows the mind to shed anxiety and the troubles that cause it. Large stores use music to put people in a good mood and people in a good mood spend more money. Research has proven it and that’s why so many public places use it.
