Abstract

An interactive aid for musicians is described, together with its applications to music teaching, music composition, real-time performance and music typesetting. The system permits the input of sounded music and its subsequent playback using an electronic organ. Facilities for transcription, display and editing are provided using a graphical display unit. A digital synthesizer is incorporated for sophisticated sound generation. Problems encountered with transcription, display and editing of sounded music are identified. A performance-oriented music notation is described, and compared with conventional music notation. The requirements of both notations are assessed with respect to the transcription, display and editing tasks. The value of an interactive rather than fully automatic system is emphasized. Software and data-base organization of a transcription system permitting the display and editing of both notations is described. Results are presented of practical uses of the system.
