Abstract
A music interpreter apparatus automatically interprets a notational music composition (written or printed music), which is abstract and incomplete to some extent, to provide its performance realization information which is specific and complete. The apparatus includes a score memory, an interpreter and a performance memory. The score memory stores a coded music notational symbol string representing a written music composition. The interpreter reads and interprets the coded music notational string based on an artificial intelligence simulating knowledge and experience of a human music interpreter or performer to provide a performance symbol string specifying the performance realization and containing played pitch, note-on time, duration and loudness parameters of specified values with respect to each note in the music composition. The resultant performance symbol string is stored into the performance memory.
