Abstract

Research in the field of Computer-Music is directed towards construction of computer systems for composition, performance of musical tasks, music training, signal processing and extension of traditional music sounds, notation study, music analysis, storage and communication of musical data, and music information retrieval and classification. Computer applications in music lead to the development of computational models. Examples are the works of Winograd, Ebcioglu, Laske, Cope, Bamberger, Berger & Gang and Orlarey. Berger & Gang use artificial neural networks to investigate music perception, Orlarey et al. introduce the notion of Concrete Abstraction (borrowed from Lambda Calculus) as a basis for their purely functional composition environment, while Winograd uses a Systemic Grammar approach borrowed from Linguistics.
