Original Kurzfassung:
Semantic Audio and Music Information Retrieval (MIR) Research have led
to some spectacular successes in recent years. In this presentation I will
introduce performance expression as an important dimension of the
'semantics' of a piece of music;
discuss and demonstrate what it means to extract, quantify, characterise, and model this via machine;
review recent work on computational modelling of performance expression;
sketch possible application scenarios;
and identify pertinent research challenges for our field.
Generally, my aim is to promote a field of research that not all attendees of this conference may be so familiar with and that, I believe, is of real
importance when we speak of the 'semantics' of musical audio.
