the classical music canon may contain
some of the greatest artistic
achievements in human history or maybe
it’s just a bunch of pretentious junk
for the top hat and monocle crowd
welcome to watchmojo.com and today is
installment we’re counting down the five
most fascinating facts from the world of
classical music
number five cats respond to adagios
during surgery
veterinarian in Portugal conducted an
experiment where he played various kinds
of music for cats during surgery and
measured their physiological responses
the findings are still somewhat
preliminary but his results which were
published in the Journal of feline
medicine and surgery found that playing
a classical composition from Barber made
the cat more relaxed while a CDC’s
thunderstruck made the more stressed
Natalie Imbruglia is torn which seems
like a twisted thing to play during
surgery produced intermediate results
number four complex compositions get the
Mojo going I was staring for the cage of
those meticulous egg strokes at an
absolute beauty here’s some information
you can’t do much with but probably wish
you could researchers from the
University of Sussex played two clips of
music for women in various stages of
their menstrual cycle one composition
was fairly simple while the other was a
more complex rendition of a similar
melody they found that when asked to
imagine entering into a relationship
with the composer of each clip the
fertile women were much more interested
in the composer of the complex piece
than the non fertile woman were yes my
dear daughter come stanza she is the
fiancée of her Mozart really huh just
let the researchers to speculate that
there may be some instinct at work that
selects mating partners with
intelligence and creativity in their
genes number three Mozart tickles your
brain more than Beethoven the Beethoven
Mozart they saw it they could just play
an Italian study published in 2015 found
that listening to a piano composition
from Mozart known as K 448 gave a boost
in cognitive function but listening to
Beethoven’s Fur Elise did not this isn’t
the first time that that piece of
Mozart’s has been studied in fact
scientists have even dubbed the increase
in brain function the Mozart Effect
even though over the years many studies
have refuted these findings experiments
like that Italian one nevertheless
continued to demonstrate positive
effects some studies have even found
that listening to Mozart daily can
reduce the incidence of epileptic
seizures number two South African grapes
get the Vivaldi treatment one South
African vineyard has decided to play
baroque and classical music to their
grapes all the way from the vines to the
barrels but will it have any effect we
have a lot of people that are very
skeptical about what we’re doing and and
why we doing it particularly neighbors
while it has been observed many times
that classical music alters the way
plants grow scientists now believe that
it has more to do with the way plants
react to vibrations than sound per se so
touching or blowing on your plants could
have the same result so how will handle
and Bach make this red wine taste Oh
flabby overripe No tastes pretty good to
me
I’m sure it will pair nicely with
chicken from this Malaysian farm that
plays classical music for all its birds
number one many classical composers were
kind of nuts Eric said c8 only food that
was white and carried a hammer in his
pocket for protection Anton Bruckner was
obsessed with counting things and on two
separate occasions grabbed the skulls of
famous composers Schubert and Beethoven
out of their coffins sometimes I sit and
count all day
but sometimes I get carried away
Mozart apparently had an obsession with
farts and poop he also loved to behave
like a cat sometimes even during
rehearsals we may tend to think of
classical composers as being as stuck-up
and elitist as the Royal Courts that
they played in people so lofty they
sound as if they marble but if we
think of them as the rock stars of their
time the eccentric misunderstood
geniuses of their day then these quirks
might just make a bit more sense
so what do you think of classical music
