Abstract
The positive treatment effect of Mozart's melody on patients with epilepsy, which was propagated in the late 1990s, was investigated in 29 papers. Commonly, the first movement of the sonata for two pianos KV 448 was played with many repetitions. At least a fifth of the patients achieved a reduction of seizure frequency of more than 50%. Patients with epileptic discharges from the occipital lobe responded very rarely. The mechanism of the effect is not clear, but the melodic aspects seem to have a significant role in this context.
