Ever wondered whether a baby enjoys classical music over techno? We had read and heard from a large number of sources that a baby should be given a healthy dose of classical music right from day 1 – helps in growing their intelligence. Hence Anika was fed daily dosages of Bach, Beethoven and Bartok, and was even tortured through some of Schoenberg’s minimalism. I have no conclusive proof that this course of musical medication helped in developing her brain. What I do know that when I was playing Beethoven’s 5th early in the morning, Anika was moving around the floor, doing what she does. But when I popped in The Man Machine, by Kraftwerk, all her duties were suspended instantly. Instead, her bottom starting shaking, then her back started moving, and finally her entire body was throbbing to the music – an immense sense of pleasure which was lacking completely when Beethoven was branding his fat chords.
