A music researcher's quest to discover other musical species. Even those of us who can't play a musical instrument or lack a sense of rhythm can perceive and enjoy music. Research shows that all humans possess the trait of musicality. We are a musical species—but are we the only musical species? Is our musical predisposition unique, like our linguistic ability? In The Evolving Animal Orchestra, Henkjan Honing embarks upon a quest to discover if humans share the trait of musicality with other animals. Charles Darwin believed that musicality was a capacity of all animals, human and nonhuman, with a clear biological basis. Taking this as his starting point, Honing—a music cognition researcher—visits a series of biological research centers to observe the ways that animals respond to music. He has studied scientists' accounts of Snowball, the cockatoo who could dance to a musical beat, and of Ronan, the sea lion, who was trained to move her head to a beat. Now Honing will be able to make his own observations. Honing tests a rhesus monkey for beat perception via an EEG; performs a listening experiment with zebra finches; considers why birds sing, and if they intend their songs to be musical; explains why many animals have perfect pitch; and watches marine mammals respond to sounds. He reports on the unforeseen twists and turns, doubts, and oversights that are a part of any scientific research—and which point to as many questions as answers. But, as he shows us, science is closing in on the biological and evolutionary source of our musicality.

The subject of leadership has been written all the years by both big and small names, in large and small prints. Why, then, would I bother to write another book on this subject? Why would one need to read this book? Perhaps in the following few paragraphs I will be able to make a case for this inspired cause and thus gain your most precious audience."Running away from a problem does not solve it," one of my teachers said. "You must confront the problem in order to solve it." In my childhood, I learnt the value of taking responsibility whenever there was something that needed to be addressed. These were my first leadership lessons. In that case, therefore, in my study and practice, I still felt a sense of responsibility to add my little voice to this very important subject, even if doing so could only help a single individual to be inspired into becoming the person The Creator intended in him or her. This book, over and above learning leadership, helps people to identify their purpose in life and unify it with their leadership agenda with a view of leaving a timeless legacy. Life therefore becomes one adventurous journey of leadership to all who study this book. Of course the very first person that you ought to lead is yourself and by being able to appropriately do so, you earn the right to lead others too. They, themselves, shall be willing to be led by you. In this book, I share personal life experiences in leadership in the simplest possible language for leaders at all levels to draw maximum benefit from. My innate drive to keenly and reflectively study situations from every facet of life I get involved in and my love for music found an opportunity to converge. Thus this book uses the metaphor of orchestral music to share salient leadership lessons that would hitherto stay hidden from some people. This is not a music book. It is a leadership book. You do not have to know music in order to appreciate it. All you have to do is contemplatively tap your right foot to its beats as you drink from its priceless pot of knowledge. As life would have it, the universe is full of music. All around us is music in the sense of harmony. The Creator did not intend any chaos but harmony in all we see and do. That is what makes music; many parts, many instruments, manyparticipants but one beautiful piece of art that is pleasing to the ear. The same applies in all our leadership positions. Wehave to bring all pieces together in order to achieve the envisioned results. That is the language of life. Whoever makes the best symphony becomes the greatest leader;- the greatest director for the orchestra. It is my belief that you will enjoy the musicality in this leadership book as you dutifully mine the nuggets of wisdom that lurk within the pages into your life. The lessons you are going to learn by studying it shall forever remain imprinted in your heart and positively contribute to your immortality. I wish you all the best in your leadership endeavors and look forward to receiving a feedback from you abouthow this book impacted your life. Otieno Paul-Peter, Esq.

From the PREFACE. THIS little volume is not addressed to professional musicians nor yet to the student of Orchestration. For these there is an ample number of comprehensive text-books, such as those of Berlioz, Corder and Prout, which deal with all the technicalities of what is popularly known as the "Band." But, outside those who make music their calling, the world holds a vast multitude of listeners to music who would never think of reading an academic treatise on "Instrumentation." Indeed the majority of musical amateurs, particularly those who are hearers rather than performers of music, know nothing of the concert platform beyond what they see of it from an auditorium. To them the orchestra, which literally means " dancing-place," is a stage upon which all is couleur de rose. Behind the glow of lights, the veneer of evening dress, and the ravishing and often bewildering multitude of sound-voices are hidden human nerves at a high tension bent on extracting from mechanical sources, as from human lungs, an ever-mysterious language of emotions. Those who have played or sung in public can never be indifferent to the instruments which have served them either for display or accompaniment. It is, therefore, not to these who make music, but to those for whom music is made that, in the following pages, we have attempted to introduce, with as little formality as possible, each separate member of the great family of sound-sources which constitute the Orchestra. At the start, however, it may be asked: Are concert-goers interested enough in the band to desire a more intimate understanding of it ? In other words, is the listener content to take the agglomeration of orchestral sounds as he hears it, and not go further to inquire into the nature and distinction of wood, brass and strings? Let us reply by asking another question. What is the attitude of the normal child when he is taken for the first time close to a military band? He is at once in love with the big drum, and probably longs to have a drum of his own. Then the great bombardon or the shrill trumpet fascinates him, and mother or nurse are plied with questions about the men with inflated cheeks who make music from these brazen tubes. Noise and size, we observe, are the primary elements of interest with the boy who is said to be father of the man. It may be also, if he is a thoughtful or naturally musical child, that the less assertive members of the group of instruments - the flute, oboe, or clarinet - will claim his attention. In fact he may want to know the name of each, much to the concision of his guardian, if he or she, owing to a life-long ignorance, would not willingly deceive the little inquisitor....
