apparently we've been into music for a very long time

Today I came across a headline that reads "Stone Age jams: Humans playing the flute for at least 35,000 years, no word yet on sax." Following the link led me to Scientific American and a short report on the find of paleolithic flutes in southwestern Germany. Seems like us human folks got into the arts relatively early in our development. Not so easy to tell when we learned how to sing though...
