    The authors conducted an experiment to determine if different music tempos (40 BPM, 80 BPM, 120 BPM, 200 BPM) could affect a person's mood or heart rate. Participants listened to 30 seconds of each tempo while their heart rate was monitored. Unexpectedly, heart rates increased dramatically after listening ended rather than increasing with faster tempos. The results suggest that tempo can impact heart rate, with rates generally lowering during music and increasing after. Mood also tended to improve slightly with the faster tempos.
