Thomas Carlyle described poetry, too, as ;musical thought'. Perhaps music, poetry, discursive thinking, art, concepts and ideas are all from the same 'place'?

musical thought which unify musical microstructure with
structure, giving rise to musical integrity </blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.microsoundmusic.com/clynes%5Cgenerat.htm"><P>We are here
concerned about what these principles can tell us about musical
thought and about thought itself.
Musical thought is a particular kind of thought. It has much in
common with non-musical thought and also much that is specific.
Non-musical thought involves verbal language and/or non-verbal
processes; it is clearly possible to a considerable degree to
think without language. Does it make sense to ask what is left of
musical thought if one removes musical language from it? In both
musical as in non-musical thought, the largest portions of its
processes are not conscious, and so this question involves
unconsciously operating generative grammars. Evidence for this
grammar is found in musical microstructure. </p> <H3></H3></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.microsoundmusic.com/clynes%5Cgenerat.htm"><FONT size="4">Manfred Clynes </FONT>
