• Title: Musical Form Generation
• Authors: Lilac Atassi
• Abstract summary: This paper introduces an approach for generating structured, arbitrarily long musical pieces. Central to this approach is the creation of musical segments using a conditional generative model. The generation of prompts that determine the high-level composition is distinct from the creation of finer, lower-level details.

• Abstract: While recent generative models can produce engaging music, their utility is limited. The variation in the music is often left to chance, resulting in compositions that lack structure. Pieces extending beyond a minute can become incoherent or repetitive. This paper introduces an approach for generating structured, arbitrarily long musical pieces. Central to this approach is the creation of musical segments using a conditional generative model, with transitions between these segments. The generation of prompts that determine the high-level composition is distinct from the creation of finer, lower-level details. A large language model is then used to suggest the musical form.

  This paper proposes integrating a text-to-music model with a large language model to generate music with form. The experimental results show that the proposed method can generate 2.5-minute-long music that is highly structured, strongly organized, and cohesive.

• Whole-Song Hierarchical Generation of Symbolic Music Using Cascaded Diffusion Models [5.736540322759929]
  We make the first attempt to model a full music piece under the realization of compositional hierarchy. High-level languages reveal whole-song form, phrase, and cadence, whereas the low-level languages focus on notes, chords, and their local patterns. Experiments and analysis show that our model is capable of generating full-piece music with recognizable global verse-chorus structure and cadences.

  This paper introduces a novel graph representation for music and a deep Variational Autoencoder that generates the structure and the content of musical graphs separately. By separating the structure and content of musical graphs, it is possible to condition generation by specifying which instruments are played at certain times.

• Unsupervised Melody-to-Lyric Generation [91.29447272400826]
  We propose a method for generating high-quality lyrics without training on any aligned melody-lyric data. We leverage the segmentation and rhythm alignment between melody and lyrics to compile the given melody into decoding constraints. Our model can generate high-quality lyrics that are more on-topic, singable, intelligible, and coherent than strong baselines.

  We introduce Noise2Music, where a series of diffusion models is trained to generate high-quality 30-second music clips from text prompts. We find that the generated audio is not only able to faithfully reflect key elements of the text prompt such as genre, tempo, instruments, mood, and era. Pretrained large language models play a key role in this story -- they are used to generate paired text for the audio of the training set and to extract embeddings of the text prompts ingested by the diffusion models.

  We propose Museformer, a Transformer with a novel fine- and coarse-grained attention for music generation. Specifically, with the fine-grained attention, a token of a specific bar directly attends to all the tokens of the bars that are most relevant to music structures. With the coarse-grained attention, a token only attends to the summarization of the other bars rather than each token of them so as to reduce the computational cost.

  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.

  MusicFrameworks is a hierarchical music structure representation and a multi-step generative process to create a full-length melody. To generate melody in each phrase, we generate rhythm and basic melody using two separate transformer-based networks. To customize or add variety, one can alter chords, basic melody, and rhythm structure in the music frameworks, letting our networks generate the melody accordingly.
