On the Characterization of Expressive Performance in Classical Music: First Results of the Con Espressione Game

no code implementations5 Aug 2020 Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Silvan Peter, Shreyan Chowdhury, Anna Aljanaki, Gerhard Widmer

In this paper, we offer a first account of this new data resource for expressive performance research, and provide an exploratory analysis, addressing three main questions: (1) how similarly do different listeners describe a performance of a piece?

A Convolutional Approach to Melody Line Identification in Symbolic Scores

1 code implementation24 Jun 2019 Federico Simonetta, Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Stavros Ntalampiras, Gerhard Widmer

The backbone of the method consists of a convolutional neural network (CNN) estimating the probability that each note in the score (more precisely: each pixel in a piano roll encoding of the score) belongs to the melody line.

User Curated Shaping of Expressive Performances

no code implementations14 Jun 2019 Zhengshan Shi, Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Gerhard Widmer

Musicians produce individualized, expressive performances by manipulating parameters such as dynamics, tempo and articulation.

What were you expecting? Using Expectancy Features to Predict Expressive Performances of Classical Piano Music

no code implementations11 Sep 2017 Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Maarten Grachten, David R. W. Sears, Gerhard Widmer

In this paper we present preliminary work examining the relationship between the formation of expectations and the realization of musical performances, paying particular attention to expressive tempo and dynamics.

From Bach to the Beatles: The simulation of human tonal expectation using ecologically-trained predictive models

no code implementations19 Jul 2017 Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Maarten Grachten, Kat Agres

Tonal structure is in part conveyed by statistical regularities between musical events, and research has shown that computational models reflect tonal structure in music by capturing these regularities in schematic constructs like pitch histograms.
