A portable cassette recorder (4) is fastened to a belt (2) low on the abdomen (1) of a pregnant woman. Music is played to the fetus through a loudspeaker (12) taped to her abdomen. The loudspeaker also serves as a microphone. The woman can listen to the music and/or to her child's heartbeat via headphones (8). Loudspeakers (22) permit the participation of a larger audience - in stereo. A transmitter (26) facilitates remote monitoring via a mobile phone (28).
