WHAT IS THE LISTENING PROGRAMME®?

The Listening Programme® is a Music-Based Auditory Stimulation method that is used to train the auditory skills needed to effectively listen, learn, and communicate.

It consists of an extensive series of high-quality audio CDs that integrate specially produced acoustic music, primarily classical, with innovative sound processing techniques.

The Listening Programme® benefits people of all ages starting as young as age two. And, is the only Auditory Stimulation method that has a patent pending process of music production and sound engineering.

Advanced Brain Technologies, LLC (ABT) developed The Listening Programme® building upon key concepts originated by the late Alfred Tomatis, M.D., a pioneer in the field of auditory intervention.


WHO CAN BENEFIT?

Anyone can benefit from improved listening function.

The Listening Programme® is used by people of all ages, starting as young as age two.

Empirical evidence has demonstrated benefits for;

	The typically developing child
	Individuals experiencing listening, sensory, learning, language, reading, attention, memory, social, communication, and auditory processing difficulties
	Those interested in improved communication and speaking skills, musical ability, learning potential, and creativity

THE PROGRAMME®

A minimum of 40-60 hours is recommended for initial gains to be achieved with continued listening as goals for listening change, or as needed.

Standard Listening Schedules and Variations of 20 hour cycles encompass daily (5 days per week, 2 days off) listening of 15-30 minutes over the course of 8-16 weeks.

Preparatory listening of 2-10 minutes daily is done with sensitive listeners prior to beginning a Standard Schedule.

Programs are individualized using the A, B, C design and CDs of varying levels of intensity and purpose as needed.

Programs are self-administered under the monitoring and consultation of a trained Authorized Provider of The Listening Programme®.


UNIQUE PATENT PENDING DESIGN

The modular design of each sixty-minute TLP CD includes 4 fifteen-minute segments. There are 3 five-minute tracks per segment. The first track of a segment is "A", the second is "B", and the third is "C".

The A track supports listeners as they gradually adjust to the experience of filtered sound and prepares them to be receptive to the B track, which presents the greatest intensity of filtered sound with audio bursting. The C track helps organize the experience and return listeners to their natural listening environment.


THE MUSIC

Classical, classically inspired, improvised, folk, and children's music produced by ABT Music and performed by the award-winning members of The Arcangelos Chamber Ensemble.

High quality nature sounds are also interwoven into many of the soundscapes.

All music and nature sounds produced for The Listening Programme® are digitally spectrally analyzed to confirm frequency spectrum.
