Evolving Musical Counterpoint
Musical counterpoint, a musical technique in which two or more independent melodies are played simultaneously with the goal of creating harmony, has been around since the baroque era. However, to our knowledge computational generation of aesthetically pleasing linear counterpoint based on subjective fitness assessment has not been explored by the evolutionary computation community (although gen...
متن کاملPerception of string quartet synchronization
Timing variation in small group musical performance results from intentional, expressive, and unintentional, error components in individual player timing. These timing fluctuations produce variability in between-player note asynchrony and require timing adjustments to keep the ensemble together. The size of the adjustments relative to the asynchrony (correction gain) affects the amount and natu...
متن کاملComputational Analysis of Musical Form
Can a computer understand musical forms? Musical forms describe how a piece of music is structured. They explain how the sections work together through repetition, contrast, and variation: repetition brings unity, and variation brings interest. Learning how to hear, to analyse, to play, or even to write music in various forms is part of music education. In this chapter, we briefly review some t...
متن کاملNeural Dynamic Programming for Musical Self Similarity
We present a neural sequence model designed specifically for symbolic music. The model is based on a learned edit distance mechanism which generalises a classic recursion from computer science, leading to a neural dynamic program. Repeated motifs are detected by learning the transformations between them. We represent the arising computational dependencies using a novel data structure, the edit ...
متن کاملMultidimensional analysis of interdependence in a string quartet
In a musical ensemble such as a string quartet, the performers can influence each other’s actions in several aspects of the performance simultaneously. Based on a set of recorded string quartet exercises, we carry out a quantitative analysis of ensemble interdependence in four distinct dimensions of the performance (dynamics, intonation, tempo and timbre). We investigate the fluctuations of int...
