• Abstract: The polyphonic nature of music makes the application of deep learning to music modelling a challenging task. On the other hand, the Transformer architecture seems to be a good fit for this kind of data. In this work, we present Calliope, a novel autoencoder model based on Transformers for the efficient modelling of multi-track sequences of polyphonic music. The experiments show that our model is able to improve the state of the art on musical sequence reconstruction and generation, with remarkably good results especially on long sequences.

  We present an alternative paradigm for producing music generation models that can listen and respond to musical context. We describe how such a model can be constructed using a non-autoregressive, transformer-based model architecture. The resulting model reaches the audio quality of state-of-the-art text-conditioned models, as well as exhibiting strong musical coherence with its context.

  Symbolic Music Generation relies on the contextual representation capabilities of the generative model. We propose a multi-scale Transformer, which uses coarse-decoder and fine-decoders to model the contexts at the global and section-level. Our model is evaluated on two open MIDI datasets, and experiments show that our model outperforms the best contemporary symbolic music generative models.
