Music Was an Act of Creation-part 3

Music Was an Act of Creation-part 3
             Some Christian music philosophers and practicing church musicians believe that music has evolved (from noting to something) over the centuries and that it is the product on mankind rather than a God who created it on purpose. This faulty philosophical theory effectively lets the Christian musician who is seeking autonomy off the hook philosophically.  If God did not objectively take nothing and make music out of this “nothingness” then what does Psalm 146:6 mean when it so clearly states that it was God “Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth forever”?  Strong says that asah (6213) means “to do or make” something. 
             Is there any logical reason why music is not a part of this “all” which is mentioned here?  Also, St. John 1:3&10, Ephesians 3:9, and Revelation 4:11all support the belief of a complete creation and especially, Colossians 1:16, “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him.”
