Among them, most recognized different countries were works Huang Anlun Du Mingxin. Along with fame pianists who performed them importance themselves music China, a considerable merit is seen enrichment their concerts symphonic principles that influence...

1.1. The concept of mode in Renaissance polyphony has been widely criticised in the last thirty years. However, many musicologists still believe that it cannot be completely dismissed, because the process of ascribing a given composition to a specific mode (no matter how difficult it might prove to be) can have an epistemological/hermeneutical value in itself, and because, all things considered...

This paper presents an annotation model for harmonic structure of a piece of music, and a rule system that supports the automatic generation of harmonic annotations. Musical structure has so far received relatively little attention in the context of musical metadata and annotation, although it is highly relevant for musicians, musicologists and indirectly for music listeners. Activities in sema...

State-of-the-art ways for visualizing high-level music concepts are currently a trend in music computing, aiming at bridging the semantic gap between music information retrieval and human knowledge. This work presents the analysis of Brahms’s String Quartet Op.51 No.1 concerning the concept of chromaticism by using the chromatic index (a chroma measure especially designed for calculating chroma...

We propose a novel set of chroma-based audio features inspired by pitch class set theory and show their utility for style analysis of classical music by using them to classify recordings into historical periods. Musicologists have long studied how composers’ styles develop and influence each other, but usually based on manual analyses of the score or, more recently, automatic analyses on symbol...

We present a corpus-based study of musical rhythm, based on a collection of 4.8 million bar-length drum patterns extracted from 48,176 pieces of symbolic music. Approaches to the analysis of rhythm in music information retrieval to date have focussed on low-level features for retrieval or on the detection of tempo, beats and drums in audio recordings. Musicological approaches are usually concer...

Abstract: Due to various historical and realistic reasons, the development of basic music theory in China lags behind teaching system, content other aspects. It is an important task for Chinese workers revise or supplement current related textbooks then build a discipline system China. This paper synthesizes theories education history, culture, morphology disciplines. uses scientific, objective...

Ink bleedthrough is common problem in early music documents. Even when such bleedthrough does not pose problems for human perception, it can inhibit the performance of optical music recognition (OMR). One way to reduce the amount of bleedthrough is to take into account what is printed on the reverse of the page. In order to do so, the reverse of the page must be registered to match the front of...

It is hardly possible to immediately give an exact answer the question: what number of authors musical-theoretical treatises containing catalogs musical-rhetorical figures. But very often “recognized” (with a fairly stable set theoretical sources) considered be fifteen authors. How did scholars German language space gradually discover musical figures in and include them scientific circulation? ...
