Abstract

In this article we report on progress at the Australian CRC for Interac-tion Design investigating the computational generation of orchestral music based in the Germanic Symphonic tradition. We present an introduction to the project including a brief overview of our intended methods and some guiding principles for the project. We then outline the current state of the project and introduce our initial algorithmic system with a special emphasis on an implementation of Paul Hin-demith’s harmonic system. We conclude with some initial findings and future goals. We provide an extensive selection of audio examples on-line that accompany, verify and enhance information provided in this report.
