Abstract
Music is a form of expression. Since machines have limited capabilities in this sense, our main goal is to model musical composition process, to allow machines to express themselves musically. Our model is based on a linguistic approach. It describes music as a language composed of sequences of symbols that form melodies, with lexical symbols being sounds and silences with their duration in time. We determine functions to describe the probability distribution of these sequences of musical notes and use them for automatic music generation.
