:::::: Regarding Lucifer, an event in heaven would leave no direct evidence on earth. You say that you could theorise such evidence: could you please give me an example? We have the Biblical account, but we cannot use the existence of a claim as evidence in favour of itself.

:::::: I say that King David's choir (leaving aside questions of size) is a reasonable possibility, because members of royalty throughout history have often been patrons of music or owned private musical ensembles, and because David is said to have been a keen musician himself. On what basis can one judge the plausibility of Lucifer being the first musician? We are not privy to the normal course of events in heaven, and with what else could it be compared?

::::::: Someone other than one of the biblical authors might also have recorded that music started in heaven, having learnt that from an angel, prophet, or etc.  That would be an independent supportive evidence.

::::::: The very fact that we have the capability of singing would support the idea that music was "invented" in heaven, making the claim entirely plausible.
