Music Notation as a MEI Feasability Test

نویسنده

  • B. Schwartz
چکیده

This project demonstrated that enough information can be retrieved from MEI, an XML format for musical information representation, to transform it into music notation with good fidelity. The process involved writing an XSLT script to transform files into Mup, an intermediate format, then processing the Mup into PostScript, the de facto page description language for high-quality printing. The results show that the MEI format represents musical information such that it may be retrieved simply, with good recall and precision.

The Music Encoding Initiative as a Document-Encoding Framework

Recent changes in the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) have transformed it into an extensible platform from which new notation encoding schemes can be produced. This paper introduces MEI as a document-encoding framework, and illustrates how it can be extended to encode new types of notation, eliminating the need for creating specialized and potentially incompatible notation encoding standards.

Verovio: A library for Engraving MEI Music Notation into SVG

Rendering symbolic music notation is a common component of many MIR applications, and many tools are available for this task. There is, however, a need for a tool that can natively render the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) notation encodings that are increasingly used in music research projects. In this paper, we present Verovio, a library and toolkit for rendering MEI. A significant advantage...

The Music Encoding Initiative (MEI)

This paper draws parallels between the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and the proposed Music Encoding Initiative (MEI), reviews existing design principles for music representations, and describes an eXtensible Markup Language (XML) document type definition (DTD) for modeling music notation which attempts to incorporate those principles.

Graphic to Symbolic Representations of Musical Notation

This paper discusses the SCORE data format, a graphically oriented music representation developed in the early 1970’s, and how such a representation can be converted into sequential descriptions of music notation. The graphical representation system for the SCORE editor is presented along with case studies for parsing and converting the data into other symbolic music formats such as Dox, Humdru...

Separating Presentation and Content in MEI

Common Western music notation is traditionally organized on staves that can be grouped into systems. When multiple systems appear on a page, they are arranged from the top to the bottom of the page, similar to lines of words in a text document. Encoding music notation documents for printing requires this arrangement to be captured. However, in the music notation model proposed by the Music Enco...
