Towards a Generative Theory of Interpretation for Performance Modeling
@article{Tanguiane1999TowardsAG, title={Towards a Generative Theory of Interpretation for Performance Modeling}, author={Andranik Tanguiane}, journal={Musicae Scientiae}, year={1999}, volume={3}, pages={237 - 267} }
Performance structure is described in terms of segmentation and classification of segments. Types of segments are associated with specific execution techniques. Similarly to speech, segments are shown by “performance waves” in timing and dynamics with a single common peak. Performance waves are arranged in a hierarchy corresponding to the form of the piece which can be understood rather subjectively. The interpretation score may look as an orchestral arrangement, where segments are classified…

Technology of Interpretation and Expressive Pulses
- GeologyJoint International Conference on Cognitive and Systematic Musicology
- 1996
A system of rules has been developed which aim to do segmentation and the First Movement of Vivaldi's Violin Concerto in G major (Op.3 No.3) is taken as an example of how to use the analysis-based method for the interpretation.
Modeling the rational basis of musical expression
- Art
- 1995
The research methodology employed in this project is similar to the philosophy followed in Widmer (1992), where a program was developed that could learn to harmonize melodies, and the hypothesis is that certain aspects of expressive performance should become explainable once the authors have a model of musical structure understanding.

This article develops the implications of the view that Phrasing can make an important difference to the rhythmic interpretation that the listener assigns to a given sequence and can serve a structural function as well as a purely ornamental one.
