Few algorithms for automated music composition are able to address the combination of harmonic structure, metrical structure, and repetition in a generalized way. Markov chains and neural nets struggle to address repetition of a musical phrase, and ...

Mixed music is about live musicians interacting with electronic parts which are controlled by a computer during the performance. It allows composers to use and combine traditional instruments with complex synthesized sounds and other electronic devices. ...

Melody harmonisation is a centuries-old problem of long tradition, and a core aspect of composition in Western tonal music. In this work we describe FHarm, an automated system for melody harmonisation based on a functional model of harmony. Our system ...

We present an application of reduction and higher-order functions in a recent computer-aided composition project. Our objective is the generation of control data for the Chant sound synthesizer using OpenMusic (OM), a domain-specific visual programming ...
