}The main activities in music studies concern den- ing structures and studying relationships among them. Com- puters could be very useful in performing these tasks. This paper discusses the representation of musical concepts for reasoning tasks which are common in the analysis and composition of musical works. We argue in favour of the following properties in our representation framework: abstraction, expressiveness, multiple views and reasoning efciency . Then we discuss some examples of the…

Quite a few trends in algorithmic composition today are based on a streamlined formalism, for example, in the form of random generation of note attributes using elegant statistical distributions, terse and powerful formal grammars, or generalizations of serial composition procedures.
Investigating the Influence of Representations and Algorithms in Music Classification

This paper investigates how variations in the representation of the musical segments and in the categorisation algorithm influence the outcome of the classification, and shows that an appropriate choice of features can yield results that are very similar to a human classification.
