Concerning your comments about the earth’s key being Db, here is a link to a review of Paul Winter’s recording Common Ground from of all places Sports Illustrated: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1094431/index.htm. In the article is the following:
Winter subsequently discovered that the wolf, eagle and whale all “sang” in the key of D flat. “I’ve enjoyed speculating,” he says, “on whether this is a lucky coincidence, or a gift from the Muse. I was told by a teacher once that in some esoteric systems, D flat is considered to be the key of the Earth.”
