Does that happen even when, say, you're reading the signs on a highway?
Yes.
Sometimes, when I'm really engrossed in a novel, I can manage to get past that filter of a voice reading things in my head and just see moving images/hear characters speaking, but usually it's moving images with the voiceover of the text being read by the inner voice. (The images are always there when I'm reading, say, poetry or prose. Not really so much with highway signs. I'm a multimedia thinker.)
since one of the biggest selling points of Schenkerian analysis is that the result is still some kind of music.
That sounds rather awesome. *wikis* Ohhhh. I GET that. Not the nuances, but the general concept makes a lot of sense to me.
I think primarily in words, and music gets translated into words when I listen to it
Oh, wow. That makes things clearer--my brain absolutely doesn't do that when I listen to music, although I think primarily in words. (The frequency appears to go words, images, and sounds.)
