Abstract
Computer-based systems, devices, and methods for generating variations of musical compositions are described. Musical compositions stored in digital media include one or more music data object(s) that encode notes. A first set of notes is characterized and a transformation is applied to replace at least one note in the first set of notes with at least one note in a second set of notes. The transformation may explore or call upon the full range of musical notes available without being constrained by conventions of musicality and harmony. For each particular note in the second set of notes that replaces a note in the first set of notes, whether the particular note is in musical harmony with other notes in the music data object is separately assessed and, if not, the particular note is adjusted to bring it into musical harmony with other notes in the music data object.
