The infamous "Mozart Effect" seems to have some basis in reality, but its real world applications (both in situations where it can help and in the actual pieces that can be used) are a lot more restrictive.
Situations where it could help: apparently, it can decrease seizures in people with epilepsy. That's about it and even that's up in the air.
Pieces that can work: Apparently, only three pieces actually work for this purpose, and one of them wasn't even written by Mozart.
Full disclosure: I was inspired to look this up after watching The Incredibles for the first time in donkeys and realising that, apparently, a babysitter's decision to play a Mozart CD (one that doesn't seem to include either of the two Mozart pieces, let alone the Yanni one) is enough to awaken Jack-Jack's latent superpowers.
