ALUR | A Cornellian’s Guide to Study Music

By ANITA ALUR

With the start of prelim season, I figured it was about time I presented my favorite musical artists for studying. Everyone operates differently when it comes to study music; while some enjoy the sound of silence whilst engaging with their work, others cannot operate without background noise. I’m somewhere in the middle: I like listening to music while I work, but I have different sonic needs depending on my work. Every type of work places distinctive demands on the mind. So, I’ve decided to put together “genre” and “work” pairings to keep you sane and productive through the rest of the semester.
