Music During Passing

From now on classical music will be played in the hallways everyday at every passing. We aren’t sure if there will be different songs played in each passing or if it will change everyday yet. Here are some reasons that we should listen to classical music:

“It's been said that listening to music is good for the soul, and now new research shows that it's good for the brain, too. That's at least according to new findings published in the journal PeerJ, in which researchers say that listening to 20 minutes of classical music modulates genes” responsible for brain functioning. During the study, researchers had volunteers listen to Mozart's violin concerto No. 3 G-Major, K.216, a piece that lasts 20 minutes. The participants were either musically experienced or inexperienced. They found that listening to music positively affected the activity of up-regulated genes involved in dopamine secretion and transport, synaptic function, learning and memory. This includes a gene called synuclein-alpha (SNCA), which is most often linked with Parkinson's disease, and is also responsible for how birds learn their songs,” (From Nature World News: Listening to Classical Music Good for the Brain).

Here are what some of people think about this change:

“It would make sense because class is in classical and you going to class during passing,“ said Ms. Garrison.

“It sounds interesting,” said Memphis.

“I like the idea of having music being played during passing, but hallways are usually pretty loud so the music could be drowned out,” said Bitiyah.

There are even rumors that the music will be from the orchestra's performances. This is all we have for now we will fill you in as we find out more.
