schenker41

This repository contains 41 excerpts of common practice period music, along with machine-readable Schenkerian analyses for those excerpts. These are the data used for Phillip Kirlin's Ph.D. dissertation, A Probabilistic Model of Hierarchical Music Analysis (University of Massachusetts Amherst, February 2014). The dissertation can be downloaded from http://www.cs.rhodes.edu/~kirlinp/diss.html.

Each piece of music has a MusicXML file that contains the notes of the excerpt, and an analysis file with the Schenkerian analysis of the excerpt. The analyses mainly list the prolongations present in the music. Each prolongation is in the form X (Y) Z where X and Z are lists of notes that are prolonged by the notes in Y. One of X and Z may be absent. The notes in X, Y, and Z are given so that they may be easily located in the MusicXML file. Each note is specified with a measure number, pitch, octave, and occurrence. For instance, 4f#5-2 specifies the second occurrence of the F# in the fifth octave (using scientific pitch notation) of the fourth measure.
