Original Kurzfassung:
The paper presents a novel approach to exploring similarities
in music performances. Based on simple measurements
of timing and intensity in 12 recordings of a Schubert piano
piece, short ‘performance archetypes’ are calculated using a
SOM algorithm and labelled with letters. Approximate string
matching done by an evolutionary algorithm is applied to find
similarities in the performances represented by these letters.
We present a way of measuring each pianist’s habit of playing
similar phrases in similar ways and propose a ranking of the
performers based on that. Finally, an experiment revealing
common expression patterns is briefly described.
