Classical music stands as a hallmark of human creativity and ingenuity. Studies have shown a relationship between listening to classical music and the development of spatial intelligence, reasoning and other cognitive skills. Appropriate for infants from birth, ''Baby Beethoven'' features 19 tracks in a 25-minute musical program.

Ludwig van Beethoven towered over the Late Classical Period and created the foundation for the Romantic Period (1830 - 1900). Baby Beethoven traces the range of history's most famous musician.

''Baby Beethoven'' is designed to be a gentle, playful introduction to the drama and range of Beethoven's music. All of the pieces featured on ''Baby Beethoven'' were composed by Ludwig van Beethoven in the late 18th Century and early 19th Century.

Classical music has been scientifically proven to encourage cognitive development in young children. Baby Beethoven, a 29-minute Baby Einstein production, presents excerpts from five of the composer's most famous symphonies, as well as incidental music, in a child-friendly, sensory-rich format. Familiar Beethoven themes like the Ode to Joy from his Ninth Symphony are playfully rendered on electric piano and accompanied by colorful images of toys in action, puppetry, and babies at play. The musical excerpts are relatively short and the imagery is quick-paced and varied enough to grab the limited attention span of viewers age 1 to 36 months. Unlike previous Baby Einstein presentations, each symphonic excerpt (though not the incidental music) is labeled--a feature that encourages further exploration of favorite pieces. Baby Beethoven is an aural and visual feast that promotes creativity, mental awareness, and an appreciation for classical music in infants, toddlers, and their parents. --Tami Horiuchi
