We can certainly say that animals have achieved this, Stat. They may not use instruments, but many animals -- other than humans -- have songs that demonstrate emotion. Even some frogs make music.

You are suggesting that an animal believes it is producing "beauty of form" when it makes sounds? How could you possibly know this?
