more than a shred of doubt in my mind (although it depends how you mean 
this). although math can be used to model certain musical parameters, it 
has, in my opinion, essentially nothing to do with what we find rewarding in 
music. the math-music connection i think stems from a language confusion. we 
use words like "logic" in both fields, but mathematical logic and musical 
logic are fundamentally different things. happy to discuss this further,
