Lehrer taught me, at a young age, that the “division” between music and mathematics was completely arbitrary, that you can be interested in both, and indeed there is significant overlap.
Truly a gift of a person, we were fortunate to have him for nearly a century.
When I did my maths degree in the UK in the early 00s it was quite popular to do a “Maths and Music” degree that was equally split between the two. I’ve also been a musician all my life so one more sample point!
