I use yoga/meditation music, and give it a thumbs down if there is too much melody. Just droning on, through noise canceling head phones. That's what it's taking to concentrate on theory & advanced research.
I may check out Gregorian chant but usually human voices are too engaging for me.
Gregorian chant is awesome focusing/study music.
I LOVE early Western music, but most of the stuff I have is Renaissance. Some would be fine for studying, but the up-tempo stuff distracts me, esp. if the study material is dry. Never thought of Gregorian chant. I might just have to try that! :)
Not a student here, but I found I like to put on classical music (Beethoven, Brahms, etc kind). NO WORDS, so I can't sing along. But I have found that I do remember some particular music from the old Looney Tunes cartoons that I watched forever as a kid. Then I get side-tracked and start thinking about Daffy & Porky & Bugs, etc.Well the nice thing about Gregorian chant is that it's in Latin. Since I don't understand it, it's as good as instrumental to me.

I'm not sure about other students..but for me I LOVE listening to peaceful Christmas music while I do my homework/ care plans. It really gets me focused and puts me in the best mood! Anybody else out there do the same thing?
