Even animals compose: What it means to be a musical species

Music is found in all human cultures and thus appears to be part of our biology and not simply a cultural phenomenon. One approach to studying the biology of music is to examine other species to see if they share some of the features that make up human musicality.

1. I read a great book awhile back called

"This Is Your Brain On Music". It got into the evolutionary science behind how we are able to create and appreciate music. There was a great bit about birds and music as well. It's worth picking up a copy.
