I was not equating music to math.  I was correlating the phenomena of
human math and music.  Math is a human perception of
reality/physics/economics and music exists because of our perception
of sound.  I think if dogs could make music parts of it would not be
audible.  

I'd like to add that I think traditional Korean music is lovely.  If
you haven't heard it, check it out.  

Thanks for the book recomendations.  I would suggest any 'experimental
phonetics' book and any 'language and the mind' book.
