Well allllrighty then!

Quote:
. . . music and language evolved as two specializations from a common ancestor,such that a series shared ancestral features evolved before either analogous or distinct features. This model is distinguished from those holding that music evolved from a dedicated linguistic capacity (music outgrowth model) or that language developed from a dedicated musical capacity (language outgrowth model). It argues instead that shared ancestral features of music and language should be thought of as musilinguistic rather than either musical or linguistic.
From a pdf. "THEORIES OF MUSIC ORIGIN" . . . a rather heady but informative text concerning this subject.
