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?
