about
Japanese Doctor and Professor who practiced at The Second Hospital of Nippon Medical College in the 1970s. He pioneered the idea that newborn babies could be soothed by listening to the sounds from inside the womb. Dr. Murooka devoloped his thesis one step further by combining the mother's body beat with favorite melodies as a means of further calming the newborn baby. While Acknowledging that the mother's body beat is most effective with infants of one month or less, Dr Murooka's use of light classics is effective in assisting the baby in making the transition from the womb to the outside world. As the baby becomes aware of his new surroundings he also becomes responsive to his enviroment and his rhythm of life as a human being becomes of great importance. Such familiar music as the Panorama from Tchaikovsky's "Sleeping Beauty" and Bach's Air on the G string offer a listening enviroment compatible with a sense of well-being and security. The latterm says Dr.Murooka, is the perfect cure for homesickness and is strongly recommended for babies of all ages.
