I watch my animals (my pets), and listen to wild animals trying to decifer musical tastes..
Only very rarely would my cat notice the stereo (lots of drums).
And my dog only notices other dogs (on tape, Thanx Ween).

I met a Dr. who was studying bird's "ear" for music, he said a Mocking bird has a taste for a 44 note scale, and not only
does this bird have an unique scale of sounds produced, to divide the 44 notes into octaves, you must think in a spiral....
Now, he didn't say anything about human scales, but, truth be told, as anyone will see if they study it, we must also place our
notes in a spiral in order to really see what is happening.

Thu, May 24, 2007 - 7:44 PMOur late family dog Jock used to dance on his hind legs & scoot on his back to music we called that move "the jock". He would dance whenever we play r&b dance tunes, he was such good toy poodle/spaniel mix pup. I miss my buddy. So I'll say yes. -

my cat most definetly has musical taste~
or maybe sensitivity is a better way of putting it~
when I am playing a stringed instrument she snuggles at my feet~
when it is time for the djembe she heads for the hills! -

Sat, June 2, 2007 - 2:15 AMMy cat-friend "Tempeh" really like western classical music in the morning.
"Endorphine" like classical rock like ELP.
They don't like metal - but they do like the Dead.

Sat, July 28, 2007 - 5:51 PMWe used to keep a radio tuned to NPR for Jazz, Kitaro, and blues out in the barn. Bantie Chickens seem to respond as well as caprines....goat figure....
I always felt the Dead doing Merle's "Sing Me Back Home" is great returning-from-pasture music.....
