Do you think that music is like visual art?

Some points to think about:Music is a temporal art form whereas visual arts are often staticThey both (at least in the Western classical tradition) place weight on the composer/artist, often deriving part of their value from the creator's pedigree.Music can be consumed in a wide variety of formats. Often the idea of 'liveness' is central to our experience, with the input of human beings being necessary to bringing a composition to life.
