Expressive musical icons
Abstract
Recent research on the analysis and synthesis of music performance has resulted in tools for the control of the expressive content in automatic music performance [1]. These results can be relevant for applications other than performance of music by a computer. In this work it is presented how the techniques for enhancing the expressive character in music performance can be used also in the design of sound logos, in the control of synthesis algorithms, and for achieving better ringing tones in mobile phones.
