What if your baby’s first live concert was Vivaldi or Mozart? We can not travel in time, but now they will be able to listen to their works live with other children of their age. An original classical music concert that comes to Madrid with a carefully selected program in an environment prepared for the youngest of the house.
A string quartet, thousands of warm candles (no real flame) and classical works of all time come together with Candlelight Babies, which we can enjoy for two days only in one of the most emblematic hotels in the capital.
There will be two zones: one for movement with cushions and a padded floor, and another for seating with an individual chair and space next to you to place the stroller. Safety and fun for the babies, and peace of mind for you, knowing that everything is designed for them.
Stress regulation, increased attention span and neuronal stimulation.
That classical music is good for the little ones is something we could imagine, but what are the real effects that classical music has on babies? Studies from the University of Washington, Toronto or scientific journals associate this musical genre with benefits of all kinds, from stress reduction (their heart rhythms are synchronized) to the stimulation of deep sleep (more than with music recordings).
In addition, the different voices of symphonic music (violin, cellos, winds) have a complexity that is perfect for the plasticity of the baby’s brain, which works unconsciously to separate and process these sounds. A neuronal stimulation of the auditory process that alludes to the same pathways used for language. In fact, it has been shown that babies exposed to musical structures such as classical music show better pattern detection in language later in life.
