Raga identification in Indian Art Music (IAM) remains challenging due to the presence of numerous rarely performed Ragas that are not represented in available training datasets. Traditional classification models struggle in this setting, as…
This article investigates as to how the Indian Drums are able to produce harmonics. In particular, it looks at the density distribution on an Indian Drum, the Tabla, and shows that it is the form of the density distribution that results in…
The musicological analysis of Carnatic music is challenging, owing to its rich structure and complexity. Automated \textit{r\=aga} classification, pitch detection, tonal analysis, modelling and information retrieval of this form of southern…
We present an algebraic construction of music notes and show how to associate them inseveral ways to construct music ranges. Then a family of ranges emerge with a fixed number of notes: two, three, five, seven, twelve, seventeen, etc. A…
MIDI performances are generally expedient in performance research and music information retrieval, and even more so if they can be connected to a score. This connection is usually established by means of alignment, linking either notes or…
Tablature notation is widely used in popular music to transcribe and share guitar musical content. As a complement to standard score notation, tablatures transcribe performance gesture information including finger positions and a variety of…
Emotion recognition from a given music track has heavily relied on acoustic features, social tags, and metadata but is seldom focused on lyrics. There are no datasets of Indian language songs that contain both valence and arousal manual…
Lyrics play a significant role in conveying the song's mood and are information to understand and interpret music communication. Conventional natural language processing approaches use translation of the Hindi text into English for…
Musical chords, harmonies or melodies in Just Intonation have note frequencies which are described by a base frequency multiplied by rational numbers. For any local section, these notes can be converted to some base frequency multiplied by…
In many musical traditions, the melody line is of primary significance in a piece. Human listeners can readily distinguish melodies from accompaniment; however, making this distinction given only the written score -- i.e. without listening…
Based on a review of anecdotal beliefs, we explored patterns of track-sequencing within professional music albums. We found that songs with high levels of valence, energy and loudness are more likely to be positioned at the beginning of…
Rhythms and vibrations represent the quintessence of life, they are ubiquitous (systemic) in all living systems. Recognising, unfolding these rhythms is paramount in medicine, for example in the physiology of the heart, lung, hearing,…
Compositional data are characterized by the fact that their elemental information is contained in simple pairwise logratios of the parts that constitute the composition. While pairwise logratios are typically easy to interpret, the number…
For concertgoers, musical interpretation is the most important factor in determining whether or not we enjoy a classical performance. Every performance includes mistakes -- intonation issues, a lost note, an unpleasant sound -- but these…
A set of basic notes, or `scale', forms the basis of music. Scales are specific to specific genre of music. In this second article of the series we explore the development of various scales associated with western classical music, arguably…
Melody estimation or melody extraction refers to the extraction of the primary or fundamental dominant frequency in a melody. This sequence of frequencies obtained represents the pitch of the dominant melodic line from recorded music audio…
Music is a form of expression that often requires interaction between players. If one wishes to interact in such a musical way with a computer, it is necessary for the machine to be able to interpret the input given by the human to find its…
This work was developed aiming to employ Statistical techniques to the field of Music Emotion Recognition, a well-recognized area within the Signal Processing world, but hardly explored from the statistical point of view. Here, we opened…
Music is a repetition of patterns and rhythms. It can be composed by repeating a certain number of bars in a structured way. In this paper, the objective is to generate a loop of 8 bars that can be used as a building block of music. Even…
Audio signals in a set of musical pieces are modeled as a complex network for studying the relationship between the complexity of frequency fluctuations and the interpretive style of the bass viola da gamba. Based on interdisciplinary…
