I recommend the "Miraculous Mandarin", by Bartok, and "Belshazzar's Feast",
by Walton. I pumped that into my son's mom's womb continuously, via a
walkman and headphones, for most of the gestation. He is 9 years old now
and is a brilliant pianist and appreciates a wide range of music. Your
child can hear Mozart in any doctor's office or elevator.
