DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/tismir.27 RESEARCH Learning Sonata Form Structure on Mozart’s String Quartets Pierre Allegraud*, Louis Bigo*, Laurent Feisthauer*, Mathieu Giraud*, Richard Groult†, Emmanuel Leguy* and Florence Levé*,† The musical analysis of large-scale structures, such as the classical sonata form, requires to integrate multiple analyses of local musical events into a global coherent analysis. Modelling large-scale structures is still a challenging task for the research community. It includes building large and accurate annotated corpora, as well as developing practical and efficient tools in order to visualize the analyses of these corpora. It finally requires the conception of effective and properly evaluated MIR algorithms. We propose a machine learning approach for the sonata form structure on 32 movements from Mozart’s string quartets. We release an open dataset, encoding two reference analyses of these 32 movements, totaling more than 1800 curated annotations, as well as flexible visualizations of these analyses. We discuss the occurrence in this corpus of melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic features induced by pitches, durations, and rests. We investigate whether the presence or the absence of these features can be characteristic of the different sections forming a sonata form. We then compute the emission and transition probabilities of several Hidden Markov Models intended to match the structure of sonata forms at several resolutions. Our results confirm that the sonata form is better identified when the parameters are learned rather than manually set up. These results open perspectives on the computational analysis of musical forms by mixing human knowledge and machine learning from annotated scores.

The sonata form finally became a normative since the middle of the 18th century. It is built on a piece- structure for several generations of romantic composers, level tonal path concept involving both a primary thematic being transmitted both through explicit teaching as well zone (P) and a contrasting secondary thematic zone (S) as implicit exposure.

In Caplin (1998)’s theory of formal functions, Beethoven are recognized as in sonata forms, especially first small functional units at the idea level (e.g., basic idea, movements of string quartets, concerti, symphonies, and contrasting idea) are combined to form units at the phrase piano sonatas. However, the theories about the classical level (e.g., presentation, antecedent), which in turn are sonata form were introduced almost fifty years after its combined to form units at the theme level (e.g., sentence, period, etc.).

  • PROGRAM NOTES Wolfgang Mozart Clarinet Concerto in a Major, K
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Wolfgang Mozart Born January 27, 1756, Salzburg, Austria. Died December 5, 1791, Vienna, Austria. Clarinet Concerto in A Major, K. 622 Mozart composed this concerto between the end of September and mid-November 1791, and it apparently was performed in Vienna shortly afterwards. The orchestra consists of two flutes, two bassoons, two horns, and strings. Performance time is approximately twenty-nine minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s first performance of Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto was given at the Ravinia Festival on July 25, 1957, with Reginald Kell as soloist and Georg Solti conducting. The Orchestra’s first subscription concert performance was given at Orchestra Hall on May 2, 1963, with Clark Brody as soloist and Walter Hendl conducting. Our most recent subscription concert performances were given on October 11 and 12, 1991, with Larry Combs as soloist and Sir Georg Solti conducting. The Orchestra most recently performed this concerto at the Ravinia Festival on July 15, 2001, with Larry Combs as soloist and Sir Andrew Davis conducting. This concerto is the last important work Mozart finished before his death. He recorded it in his personal catalog without a date, right after The Magic Flute and La clemenza di Tito. The only later entry is the little Masonic Cantata, dated November 15, 1791. The Requiem, as we know, didn’t make it into the list. For decades the history of the Requiem was full of ambiguity, while that of the Clarinet Concerto seemed quite clear. But in recent years, as we learned more about the unfinished Requiem, questions about the concerto began to emerge.

  • Music 231 Motive
    Music 231 Motive New Material • Motive content • Motive writing Motive (motif) A motive (sometimes referred to in the French: motif) is a melodic fragment that is repeated or varied to form a full melody, theme, or phrase. Motives are established by continued use; a group of notes that is not repeated is not a motive. The end of a motive is marked by either 1) its immediate repetition, 2) a rest, or 3) contrasting material. Usually, the repetition of a motive immediately follows its first appearance. Occasionally, contrasting material may forestall the repetition—but the motive will always be heard again at a later point in time. Germ Sometimes a longer motive can be heard as the summary of two or three smaller ideas. Each of these would be called a germ. Good motives have a distinctive profile created by simple, memorable rhythms and a few melodic intervals. Motive Examples Melodic and rhythmic elements tend to be balanced in common practice motives. However, if a motive is meant to be primarily rhythmic, it may have little melodic curve. Primarily Rhythmic Motives If a motive has a particularly interesting interval, the rhythmic profile might be less memorable. Primarily Melodic Motives Harmony can play a significant role in emphasizing a particular interval. Note the way the minor-to-major harmony supports the melodic half step in the following example. Melodic-Harmonic Motive Most good motives, though, have an interesting rhythm and a unique melodic feature. Melodic-Rhythmic Motive Length and Meter Examining the length of the motives above will show that motives tend to be a few beats to a few bars.

    Glossary for Music The glossary for Music includes terms commonly found in music education and for performance techniques. The intent of the glossary is to promote consistent terminology when creating curriculum and assessment documents as well as communicating with stakeholders. Ability: natural aptitude in specific skills and processes; what the student is apt to do, without formal instruction. Analog tools: category of musical instruments and tools that are non-digital (i.e., do not transfer sound in or convert sound into binary code), such as acoustic instruments, microphones, monitors, and speakers. Analyze: examine in detail the structure and context of the music. Arrangement: setting or adaptation of an existing musical composition Arranger: person who creates alternative settings or adaptations of existing music. Articulation: characteristic way in which musical tones are connected, separated, or accented; types of articulation include legato (smooth, connected tones) and staccato (short, detached tones). Artistic literacy: knowledge and understanding required to participate authentically in the arts Atonality: music in which no tonic or key center is apparent. Artistic Processes: Organizational principles of the 2014 National Core Standards for the Arts: Creating, Performing, Responding, and Connecting. Audiate: hear and comprehend sounds in one’s head (inner hearing), even when no sound is present. Audience etiquette: social behavior observed by those attending musical performances and which can vary depending upon the type of music performed.
