Notation-Based Ancient Greek Music synthesis with ?Rion
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes an instrument that can compose a song using predicates of Ancient Greek Music. It employs the methodology and musical notation of this specific music system and at the same time, it provides a mapping mechanism that depicts the whole process to composition predicates of the usual notation of Western Music. The aim of this application is to facilitate the efforts of Ancient Greek Music researchers in getting closer to what Ancient Greek Music really was by parametrically performing melodic pieces. ARION provides ethnomusicology with an experimental tool for notation-based Ancient Greek Music synthesis. The project approaches Ancient Greek Music by introducing a virtual Ancient Greek singer, who is able to sing in the Ancient Greek accent, while a musical instrument accompanies him. An easy-to-use and functional interface is provided for adding music and lyrics in a composition, using modern or Ancient Greek symbols of writing and music. Key-Words: Ancient Greek Music, Music Composers, .NET Framework, Csound, Singing Synthesis.

Ancient Greek Music a New Technical History
By the middle of the third century BC, from which the first preserved documents of ancient Greek written music date,1 musical notation was already firmly established; it had acquired much of the inner structure that emerges from the full account given in Alypius’ handbook, compiled perhaps half a millennium later. Thus we are not in a position to directly observe the evolution of this system ou...
متن کاملReal-Time Control of Greek Chant Synthesis
This paper we report on an interdisciplinary project for modeling Greek chant with real-time vocal synthesis. Building on previous research, we employ a hybrid musical instrument: Phonodeon (Georgaki et al. 2005), consisting of a MIDI-accordeon coupled to a real-time algorithmic interaction and vocal synthesis engine. The synthesis is based on data provided by the AOIDOS program developed in th...

This music is monophonic (with drone notes), exclusively vocal, and almost entirely sacred: very little secular music of this kind has been preserved, although we know that court ceremonial music in Byzantium was similar to the ...
