Hi! I teach vocal music, and when I have my students doing
bellwork, I have them listen to a CD I purchased at Bath and
Bodyworks called "Hydrotherapy"....it's intended to
relax...and it does. It has classical pieces on it...very
soothing. I loaned it to my friend, an 8th grade English
teacher, because the kids in my class went to his and told him
that he needed to try my CD. So, he played it for his class,
and he said that it cut down tremendously on the kids playing,
and goofing off during journal writing.

Hope this helped.
