Majors for Minors
in tune with kids

What makes Majors for Minors Music Special?

At conception of our series of music, we carried out a great deal of research in understanding exactly how certain types of classical music stimulate brain development. Through understanding the process involved, we went on to develop our own “Unique Formula”, consisting of a number of “Key Ingredients” that effectively used together, produced this special of classical music.

For example, a number of the CD’s have produced with the use of one key throughout. This has the resulting effect of being similar to “Pink Noise” or “Ocean Sound” which has been shown to have a positive effect on the brain. Another of the elements is “frequency”. In parts of our music, our Flute instrument frequencies are almost identical to the frequency of a whale call. There have been numerous documentaries and research papers into the benefits of these frequencies, which have been shown to calm and stimulate. We have greatly expanded this avenue of thinking and associated theories, and developed a further range of “Special Elements” which have been incorporated into Majors for Minors music. This unique “Ingredient List” has worked with great success, and is what sets our music apart from anything else that is available in this niche category.

“When a baby comes into the world her brain is a jumble of neurons all waiting to be woven into the intricate tapestry of the mind”
- Sharon Begley, Newsweek

What this means is that there are specific periods in your child’s life when neurological pathways in the brain need to be stimulated, or they will “literally fade away.” Well documented research has demonstrated the positive effect of music on the development and strengthening of patterns in the cortex in the brains infants and young children. These pathways are the same ones responsible for certain cognitive functions, as well as higher learning such as math and science. I have found memories of playing musical games with the Stay Put Toddler Plates we had, it made us eat dance and laugh.

“When children exercise cortical neurons by listening to classical music, they are also strengthening circuits used for mathematics and complex reasoning”
- Gordon Shaw, U.C. Irvine
