Abstract

Piano reduction is a process that arranges music for the piano by reducing the original music into the most basic components. In this study we present an automatic arrangement system for piano reduction that arranges music algorithmically for the piano while considering various roles of the piano in music. We achieve this by first analyzing the original music in order to determine the type of arrangement element performed by an instrument. Then each phrase is identified and is associated with a weighted importance value. At last, a phrase selection algorithm is proposed to select phrases with maximum importance to arrangement under the constraint of piano playability. Our experiments demonstrate that the proposed system has the ability to create piano arrangement.
