What if Mozart's prodigy could be transferred to an individual at any early age through the playing of is music, are at least a small percentage of his ability. Wouldn't that be interesting? That could lead to a revolution in children's videos and the end of Baby Einstein-like videos like this, which are kind of simplistic in comparison and probably don't set a high enough standard.
