Abstract
There is no culture without music. There is also no culture that does not have the octave as a frame interval. No culture exists which does not use musical instruments without a harmonic overtone structure. Some use more, like Western music, some use less, like Indonesian gamelan. In all cultures, there is a sense of timbre, rhythm, and form. All perceive loudness, all perceive pitch, all hear different instruments in ensemble music and can identify them.
