TrAP: An Interactive System to Generate Valid Raga Phrases from Sound-Tracings
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a new musical interface, TrAP (TRace-A-Phrase) for generating phrases of Hindustani Classical Music (HCM). In this system the user traces melodic phrases on a tablet interface to create phrases in a raga. We begin by analyzing tracings drawn by 28 participants, and train a classifier to categorize them into one of four melodic categories from the theory of Hindustani Music. Then we create a model based on note transitions from the raga grammar for the notes used in the singable octaves in HCM. Upon being given a new tracing, the system segments the tracing and computes a final phrase that best approximates the tracing.

A raga performance in Hindustani vocal music builds upon a melodic framework wherein raga-characteristic phrases are presented with creative variations while strongly retaining their identity. It is therefore of interest, for both music information retrieval and pedagogy, to understand better the space of “allowed” variations of the melodic motifs. Our recent study of melodic shapes correspondi...

متن کاملLatent Dirichlet Allocation Model for Raga Identification of Carnatic Music
Problem statement: In this study the Raga of South Indian Carnatic music is determined by constructing a model. Raga is a pre-determined arrangement of notes, which is characterized by an Arohana and Avarohana, which is the ascending and descending arrangement of notes and Raga lakshana. Approach: In this study a Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model is constructed to identify the Raga of Sou...
متن کاملAnalyzing Free-Hand Sound-Tracings of Melodic Phrases
In this paper, we report on a free-hand motion capture study in which 32 participants ‘traced’ 16 melodic vocal phrases with their hands in the air in two experimental conditions. Melodic contours are often thought of as correlated with vertical movement (up and down) in time, and this was also our initial expectation. We did find an arch shape for most of the tracings, although this did not co...
