Learning music composition with recurrent neural networks

Throughout this thesis, we are interested in modeling music composition. To do so, we study the association of music theory concepts with the learning capabilities of recurrent neural networks. Especially, we explore numerical formalizations of music so th ...

Exploring the foundations of tonality: statistical cognitive modeling of modes in the history of Western classical music

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Daniel Harasim, Fabian Claude Moss

Tonality is one of the most central theoretical concepts for the analysis of Western classical music. This study presents a novel approach for the study of its historical development, exploring in particular the concept of mode. Based on a large dataset of ...

Modeling and Inferring Proto-Voice Structure in Free Polyphony

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Christoph Finkensiep

Voice leading is considered to play an important role in the structure of Western tonal music. However, the explicit voice assignment of a piece (if present at all) generally does not reflect all phenomena related to voice leading. Instead, voice-leading p ...

A Formal Model of Extended Tonal Harmony

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss

Extended tonality is a central system that characterizes the music from the 19th up to the 21st century, including styles like popular music, film music or Jazz. Developing from classical major-minor tonality, the harmonic language of extended tonality for ...

Positioning Left-hand Movement in Violin Performance: A System and User Study of Fingering Pattern Generation

Su Li, Yi-Hsin Jen

Organizing fingerings, i.e., choosing which fingers to press on which positions and strings, is a crucial step for playing the violin. As the violin fingering comprises several components, the mapping of a musical phrase to the corresponding fingering arra ...

Interoception and Empathy Impact Perspective Taking

Bruno Herbelin, Olaf Blanke, Jane Aspell, Lukas Heydrich

Adopting the perspective of another person is an important aspect of social cognition and has been shown to depend on multisensory signals from one's own body. Recent work suggests that interoceptive signals not only contribute to own-body perception and s ...

The Learnability of the Grammar of Jazz: Bayesian Inference of Hierarchical Structures in Harmony

Daniel Harasim

Musical grammar describes a set of principles that are used to understand and interpret the structure of a piece according to a musical style. The main topic of this study is grammar induction for harmony --- the process of learning structural principles f ...

Axiomatic scale theory

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Daniel Harasim

Scales are a fundamental concept of musical practice around the world. They commonly exhibit symmetry properties that are formally studied using cyclic groups in the field of mathematical scale theory. This paper proposes an axiomatic framework for mathema ...

The Impact of Voice Leading and Harmony on Musical Expectancy

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Markus Franz Josef Neuwirth, Robert Lieck

In Western tonal music, voice leading (VL) and harmony are two central concepts influencing whether a musical sequence is perceived as well-formed. However, experimental studies have primarily focused on the effect of harmony on the cognitive processing of ...
