DESCRIPTION:The standard reply\, apparently is: from the great composers o
 r\, at least\, from conscious working out by mortals here on this earth - 
 and a wonderful gift of 'talent' and 'genius' it is too. This paper takes 
 a contrary and less conventional view (which - warning - may shock some) a
 nd looks instead at dreams\, near-death experience and telepathy - 'inspir
 ation' in its original sense. It builds both on extensive reading about mu
 sic and on the speaker's own personal experience - a 'case study' in the m
 odern terminology - and\, like as a near-lifelong anthropologist in Africa
 \, Fiji and Britain\, on (very) participative observation.
