Human language, music and a variety of animal vocalisations constitute waysof sonic communication that exhibit remarkable structural complexity. While thecomplexities of language and possible parallels in animal communication havebeen discussed intensively, reflections on the complexity of music and animalsong, and their comparisons are underrepresented. In some ways, music andanimal songs are more comparable to each other than to language, aspropositional semantics cannot be used as as indicator of communicative successor well-formedness, and notions of grammaticality are less easily defined. Thisreview brings together accounts of the principles of structure building inlanguage, music and animal song, relating them to the corresponding models informal language theory, with a special focus on evaluating the benefits ofusing the Chomsky hierarchy (CH). We further discuss common misunderstandingsand shortcomings concerning the CH, as well as extensions or augmentations ofit that address some of these issues, and suggest ways to move beyond.
