“The brain is a three pound mass you can hold in your hand that can conceive of a universe a hundred-billion light-years across.”
Marian Diamond

“Here are some musical selections you can play quietly for the fetus. Since these pieces may calm the baby after birth, it’s good to have a small but well-rehearsed repertoire. These are recommended by Dr. F. Rene Van de Carr and musician and retired professor Dr. Donald Shetler. Music for the Royal Fireworks, Handel
“Spring,” from The Four Seasons, Vivaldi
Air on the G String,J. S. Bach
The Brandenburg Concertos, J. S. Bach
Canon in D Major, Pachelbel
Pictures at an Exhibition, Mussorgsky
Slow steady pieces by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, or Vivaldi
Popular music by Tom Paxton, Burl Ives, Tom Chapin, and
Raffi”
