Introducing the Jazzomat project - Jazz solo analysis using music information retrieval methods
Abstract
The JAZZOMAT project investigates the creative processes underlying jazz solo improvisations with the help of statistical and computational methods. To this end, a comprehensive and representative database of jazz solo transcription is being built up, and an open-source Python Library is developed for analysis purposes. Besides the general outline of the project and a description of our core feature module, we present three typical analysis tasks along with some preliminary and exemplary results.
