Music for Moms & Moms-To-Be - Don Campbell CD

Don Campbell is a recognized world authority on the transformational power of music, listening, and The Mozart Effect. In Campbells unique view, music is not only a rich and rewarding aesthetic experience but a bridge to a more creative, intelligent, healthy, joy-filled life. His singular mission is to help return music to its central place in the modern world as a resource for growth, development, health and celebration. A native of San Antonio, Texas, Campbell spent his high school years in Europe, studying classical music with the legendary Nadia Boulanger and Jean Casadesus at the Fountainebleu Conservatory in France. A graduate of the University of North Texas, he began his professional career as a music critic and teacher for seven years at St. Marys International School in Tokyo. Over the years, Campbells interest in sound and healing have taken him to more than forty countries, including Greece, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Israel, Russia, Thailand and Tibet, where he has delved into the roots of indigenous cultures, collaborated with local musicians and healers, and worked with children. In his own country, Campbell participated in programs such as the Guggenheim Education Project in Chicagos inner city. Drawing from varied experiences and work with prominent musicians, therapists, and mind/body researchers, Campbell founded the Institute of Music, Health and Education in 1988, and served as director until 1995. Known to the public through his frequent television and radio appearances on such shows as NBCs Today Show, Pure Oxygen, and NPRs All Things Considered Campbell educates audiences worldwide about the transformational aspects of music. He has been invited to speak for hundreds of organizations, including schools districts, music and human development institutes, symphony orchestras, corporations, health care facilities, and general public events. Campbells eighth book, The Mozart Effect, hit the bestseller list, while the accompanying CDs The Mozart Effect Music for Children and Music for Babies series dominated the Classical Billboard charts in 1998 and 1999. He has written three other books relating to music and health, three books on education, and the biography of his teacher, Nadia Boulanger. The Mozart Effect for Children (Morrow) was released in the fall of 2000.
