Abstract:
research into music information retrieval thus far has only examined music from the western tradition. However, music of other origins often conforms to different tuning systems. Therefore there are problems both in representing this music as well as finding matches to queries from these diverse tuning systems. We discuss the issues associated with microtonal music retrieval and present some preliminary results from an experiment in applying scoring matrices to microtonal matching.
There are two parts in this talk. The first one is a brief introduction to music information retrieval. The second one discusses our approach in matching in a microtone-aware fashion. The approach will be presented at the (refereed) International Conference of Music Information Retrieval (ISMIR) 2004, to be held on 10--14 October in Barcelona, Spain.
