Mathematical ability and musical ability are closely connected. My book "Late-Talking Children" drove the point 【C1】______. Three quarters of the bright 【C2】______ speech-delayed children in the group I studied had a close relative who was an engineer or mathematician—and four fifths had a close relative who played a musical【C3】______.

If the abilities required in analytical fields and in music are so closely related, how can there be this great【C8】______? One reason is that the development of mathematical and other such abilities requires years of formal schooling,【C9】______ certain musical talents can be developed with little formal training,【C10】______has happened with many well-known black musicians.
It is in those kinds of music where one can acquire great skill without formal training【C11】______ blacks have excelled—popular music【C12】______ classical music. This is understandable, 【C13】______ that most blacks have not had either the money【C14】______ the leisure for formal study. Blacks have also played a large role in the development of jazz.
