Well, music is the central theme in a lot of stories and legends. Hell, there are even songs about songs like that. Ever hear that American Muggle song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia"? It's about an awesome fiddle player that beats the Devil in a fiddling contest. I'll try and find a copy on vinyl and I'll bring it in after break is over with.

I think we should. But we should try it on ourselves..I'll volunteer of course. We could also see if tone and inflection can enhance spells. I know spoken ones can be ineffective if the inflection is wrong but I wonder if they could be altered somehow?
