I already told you at the Veretennikov School that if you want to give your child a gift for life, give them music. In any form. If they are very interested, give them the opportunity to study it. If not quite as much, take them to concerts. As I said—and this is a scientific fact—if a child is musically active before starting school, they outperform their peers in all subjects, including mathematics! And you may ask: what does music have to do with it, and how can it possibly be connected with mathematics and other complex sciences? It is all about the brain...
Music has a very powerful and multifaceted effect on the human brain, especially during childhood. If we observe the brain at work using modern equipment while a person is listening to music, we can see a remarkable picture: the brain becomes extraordinarily active. Figuratively speaking, it “lights up like a Christmas tree,” as if many of its areas were simultaneously engaged in vivid, living activity. This shows that music is not something secondary or merely background. On the contrary, it affects the deep mechanisms of perception, emotions, inner state, and a person’s overall mental activity.
That is why music can be called a very powerful force. Its effect is not limited to a pleasant auditory impression. It can change a person’s inner state in many different ways. In one case, music can act gently and therapeutically: calming us, helping us regain our composure, relieving inner tension, and restoring emotional balance. In another, it can have the opposite effect: stimulating us, raising our energy level, intensifying our emotional tone, motivating us to act, and literally filling us with strength.
Thus, music is not merely art or simply a set of sounds, but a powerful tool for influencing the brain and psyche. It can activate different modes of inner functioning, from calm and recovery to inspiration, stimulation, and an energetic uplift. This is precisely what makes it so special: music can be a remedy, a source of support, and a source of energy, depending on how it sounds, the state a person is in, and what effect is needed at that particular moment.
Music is one of the few phenomena that engages the brain not narrowly and locally, but extraordinarily broadly. When a person listens to music, it is not just one isolated area that becomes active, but seemingly the entire brain. It does not function only partially, as it does during many simpler tasks, but responds through many of its systems at once. That is why it seems as though the brain is working almost completely: it literally flares up with activity like a display of lights and begins to operate in an especially rich mode.
This is the astonishing power of music. It does not affect hearing alone. It touches emotions, memory, attention, inner experiences, bodily reactions, and a person’s overall state. That is why music is perceived not as a partial stimulus, but as something that involves the whole person. When music plays, it is not only the ear that responds—the entire inner world responds, and along with it the brain becomes engaged on an extraordinarily broad scale.
There is a sense that while listening to music, the brain stops working “in parts” and begins to function as a unified whole. Music connects many processes within it at once, so its activity becomes especially complete, deep, and comprehensive.
When listening to music, the brain is engaged on an extraordinarily broad scale—much more holistically than during many other activities.
That is why I create and have created so many audio and music programs for you.
