Need some names of classical music that would help in calming during a bath?
I work in a nursing home, and have many confused, anxious, and dementia patients. I would like to make a CD with calm music to be put in the bath house during their baths. I know Mozart is good and bach and others of the like but I have no idea what specific songs are more for calming, as i don't really listen to this type of music. Does any one know any specific "pieces" that I can try. Thanks!!!
