<![CDATA[Complex academic demands require optimal working memory, which is often impaired by information overload and distractions. This study aims to examine the effect of exposure to Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto in A Major, K.622 on the working memory of sixth-semester students at Al Azhar Indonesia University. Utilizing a quantitative experimental approach with a Randomized Two-Group Post-Test Only Design, 30 students were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (with music exposure) or a control group (no treatment). Working memory was measured using the Merkaufgaben (ME) subtest of the Intelligenz Struktur Test (IST), and data were analyzed using an Independent Samples t-Test in Jamovi Statistical analysis was conducted using an Independent Samples t-Test, taking into account the distribution characteristics of the data. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference between groups (p = .032), with the experimental group demonstrating higher working memory performance. In conclusion, Mozart's classical music serves as an effective, practical strategy to enhance working memory and support students' academic performance.]]>
