RE: PBS "Music Instinct: Science and Song"   June 24 2009

Can someone parse it, please?

There are so many theories about the origin of music -- anyone else
have an idea?

A very short presentation in the show involved the premise that language
influences music.

Debussy's music reflects the French language.

Elgar's music reflects the English language.

Is this a subject to investigate?
