Software Project

Approaching expressive qualities in 19th century symphonic music through pattern research

The Project

Music has expressive power. What seems to be obvious, is still difficult to grasp scientifically - especially if you are interested in the effect music had in the past. For example, there are only a few sources from the 19th century that provide information about the expressive quality that people attributed to music at that time. Our project outlines a new method for approaching the effects of 19th century symphonic music combining approaches from historical and systematic musicology as well as computer science.

MUSE4Music is a cooperation project with the Musicological Institute of the University of Cologne.
