There are many approaches to being musical that represent what Howard Gardner calls "Musical Intelligence", what Alan Merriam calls the "Functions of Human Musicality", or what Donald Hodges calls the "Unique Forms of Musical Intelligence". How do the examples below demonstrate any of Merriam's Functions or Hodges's "Unique Forms"?
