I'm pretty sure that pets have another way of hearing music, they are more sensitive for sure.
In my opinion, there are at least 2 parts when hearing music: the sound and the emotional level.

I noticed that my dog is very relaxed when I play the piano or recorder, but maybe it is because I too am while practicing, Csibi is adjusting to the (emotional) situations usually.
On the other hand, he doesn't seem to like the orchestra works and hides, though and gets a bit more lively when listening to Tame Impala. I figured out that he enjoys electronic music, especially chillstep.

In comparison the cockatiels are just very interested in sounds.
They like to whistle tunes when hearing the recorder, and I found out that they enjoy J-pop... I taught the male, Herculi, to sing the Toradora theme. I need to practice again with him!
To make them shut up, playing a Coldplay album to them will do the trick!
