Monkeys

Cebus and Spider Monkey from the Amazon Rainforest

Top 100 2022, #52: Kayabí: Animal and Bird Imitations from the album Music from Mato Grosso, Brazil, recorded by Edward M. Weyer, Jr, 1954, Folkways Records. Two men perform imitations of an uru, a quail like bird, urutao, a poor-me-one bird, a saki monkey, a spider monkey, a giant otter, a cebus monkey, and a sclater's curassow. Neither liner notes or Google searches have any images of the two (or any) Kayabí performers or Edward Weyer, hence the opportunity for me to paint animals. 

Are animal sounds music? Are animal imitations music? Are human imitations of animal sounds more music than that of the animals themselves?
