Ma sentite un po’ quell' impertinente di Steven Pinker sulla musica:
"… music is useless. It shows no signs of design for attaining a goal such as long life, grandchildren, or accurate perception and prediction of the world. Compared with language, vision, social reasoning, and physical know-how, music could vanish from our species and the rest of our lifestyle would be virtually unchanged…"
E il cosmologo John Barrow:
"... music has no role in survival of the species…"
Al coro si unisce nientemeno che Daniel Sperber:
"… music an evolutionary parasite…"
