This is a collection of Lilypond code specifically designed to produce music for pipeband drumming.

This is a Free Software project to make working with the LilyPond music typesetter within KDE very easy. If you are a LilyPond user and you have KDE, then this project might be useful to you. In ... [More] the lilykde Googlecode project currently live three projects: • Frescobaldi. A LilyPond sheet music editor for KDE4. It has its own website at Frescobaldi.org. • lilypond-kde4 (for KDE 4.1 only). A base package for KDE 4.1 containing a KatePart indent script, icons and a powerful textedit protocol handler. • LilyKDE (for KDE 3.5). A Kate plugin with LilyPond editing features. (The precessor of Frescobaldi.) [Less]

Although computers have transformed how we listen to, obtain, compose, and notate music, they have not fundamentally changed how we research and analyze music. Though many computer databases have been ... [More] created for musicology, they are not well adapted for sophisticated music queries. For instance, melodies can be found if exact matches exist. But melodic variations such as the repetition of a phrase or a change in embellishment are extremely common, yet cause searches to fail. More complex investigations, such as finding all melodies that imply a particular underlying harmony, can barely begin to be created with existing software packages. The lack of relevant software for analyzing music hampers scientific attempts to understand what we listen for and how we process what we hear; these activities are little understood despite music’s nearly universal presence in our daily lives. The music21 project at M.I.T. will give to the music community the set of tools it needs to conduct sophisticated musical and statistical analysis using modern programming techniques. The software framework, written in Python and Java, manipulates music as a collection of symbolic data, such as pitch names and note durations, that can then be classified as higher level musical structures according to the style, region, or period being studied. Music21 focuses specifically on the manipulation of symbolic music data: it leaves to the many preexisting open-source and proprietary software packages the notation and audio playback of scores (the two areas where computer-aided music research is most developed). By focusing on the points of greatest need to musicology, the framework will give rapid results within a short timeframe. [Less]

Lilypond Plugin for DokuwikiIntroductionThis is a plugin to do music typesetting with Lilypond via Dokuwiki. Lilypond is a music typesetter similar to latex (in quality and complexity). Dokuwiki is a ... [More] very simple to use yet powerful wiki engine. Lilypond plugin allows to write lilypond code to a wiki page, and let the wiki generate the pdf etc for you. This enables you to: share your music with others work on your music with others revision control The idea is to eventually start a wiki where sheetmusic can be exchanged and developed collaboratively. Requirementsa working dokuwiki installation lilypond pdfinfo from xpdf-utils (or poppler-utils) svn to get the plugin in the first place Installationcd to dokuwiki/lib/plugins svn checkout http://lilypond-plugin.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ lilypond UsageSimply put something like this (any correct lilypond file) on a wiki page \relative c' { c4 d e f } The page will be saved as reduced png for thumbnails and .pdf and .ly for download. The generated files will be rendered as links. The filename is (for now) the same as the name of the wikipage (one page for one score). ConfigurationNone for now.

This project is derived from a musical composition, a modern "classical" string quintett. The program's aim is to calculate all possible permutations of up to 11-note chords based on a given ... [More] interval order; store the results in a database; render the results (preferably in LilyPond format); provide the user with a UI for selecting material for her/his own compositions and query the database. The following amount of chords is calculated (ordered by number of notes per chord): Notes/Chord Chords 2 11 3 110 4 990 5 7.920 6 55.440 7 332.640 8 1.663.200 9 6.650.800 10 19.958.400 11 39.916.800 Sum 68.586.311 Technical overviewThe program is written in Java (6), using a "classical" Spring Framework architecture (Services and DAOs). MySQL is currently supported as DBMS. The execution of the program takes currently 2 days on an average computer storing the 68.586.311 chords needs a disk space of ~35 GByte.

mingusWhat's mingus?Intervals, Chords, Scales and Progressionsmingus is a package for Python used by programmers, musicians, composers and researchers to make and investigate music. At the core of ... [More] mingus is music theory, which includes topics like intervals, chords, scales and progressions. These components are rigurously tested and can be used to generate and recognize musical elements using convenient shorthand where possible (for example some acceptable chords are: "CM7", "Am6", "Ab7", "G7"). Bars, Tracks and CompositionsOn top of the core are data structures (mingus.containers) that make it easier to work with notes in bars, tracks and compositions. These containers lay the foundation for the remaining packages: midi and extra. MIDI and SequencingThe MIDI package can save and load MIDI files, and -last but not least- provides a general purpose sequencer for all the containers and a FluidSynth sequencer subclass. This allows you to play all your data structures straight from Python in just a couple of lines. Most of the icky timing and MIDI code has been abstracted away for you, leaving a clean, relatively simple API. ExtraLastly, the extra package includes a LilyPond exporter which can be used to create sheet music in PDF, PNG and postscript. It also offers ASCII tablature and MusicXML exporting and a sound analysis module which can recognize notes and melody in raw audio data. Learn More About Mingus in the Wiki Latest news2009/07/07 -- Version 0.4.2.3: Features a new MusicXML module by Javier Palanca and a new SequencerObserver module that can be attached to a Sequencer. Also includes a full copy of the license, a THANKS and an AUTHORS file and updates to the copyright information; so that we can get included in the next Ubuntu release. Release notes. 2009/07/02 -- Version 0.4.2.0: Contains the new tunings module, with information about the different kind of tunings for various instruments, and the tablature module built on top of that, which can export all the mingus.containers to pretty ASCII tabs. See the release notes for more details and some examples. 2009/06/29 -- Opened a new mailing list targeted specifically at developers and people wishing to follow the project closely. For all commit logs, issue updates and code discussion see mingus-devel 2009/06/26 -- Version 0.4.1.0: More new stuff! A general purpose sequencer in the midi package, consonance and dissonance test on NoteContainers and a new module named fft that can analyze raw audio data for frequencies and notes. See the release notes for some examples and more details. See the complete change log here ContactFor questions, patches, recommendations and requests, you can contact the mingus google group. Visit this group ContributeThe project is currently one year old and new stuff keeps getting added. We are always open to new ideas, suggestions and code so visit the mailing list if you have any ideas or want to contribute to the project. [Less]
