Beatriz Ilari Quotations

We had a lot of parents, many unfamiliar with classical music, say that they really liked Ravel. They asked to keep it after the study, because it was helpful in putting their baby to sleep, or calming the baby at feeding time.

We have this idea that babies are maybe poor listeners, but in fact, they're not.

There's this frenzy that the parents want their babies to be so smart.
