Hi Rick
Thanks for the feedback. Your question about music
is quite justified and I've thought about it myself
once or twice.

I'm not so sure that language is absent in classical music
nor jazz. The bare fact that we can separate the two is an
indication that they are different in some way. I think that
way could be called language. I have a quite general definition
of what a language is, something like: "A mapping from inorganic
SPoVs to intellectual SPoVs".
Music is actually more than language, it's more dynamic, as are
all art.
