Abstract
A technique for modelling tonal music using multiple viewpoints is described. Markov models are used with a different model for each of a number of different viewpoints: for example, the durations of notes or their relative intervals. The models are extracted from existing pieces, or can be constructed by hand. The technique is evaluated by using models to generate new pieces. Examples are given of pieces generated using models of monodic Gregorian chant and two voice polyphony.
