At the University of Waikato (New Zealand) we are working towards a comprehensive digital library of musical material, including popular music. We have developed new ways of collecting musical material, accessing it through searching and browsing, and presenting the results to the user. We work with different representations of music: facsimile images of scores, the internal representation of a music editing program, page images typeset by a music editor, MIDI files, audio files representing sung user input, and textual metadata such as title, composer and arranger, and lyrics. The talk will include demonstrations of the various components of the system. Zeit: Dienstag, 13.Juni 2000, 18:30 Uhr pktl.
