Abstract

Research on the application of Interactive Evolutionary Computation(IEC) to the field of musical computation has been improved in recent years, marking an interesting parallel to the current trend of applying human characteristics or sensitivities to computer systems. However, past techniques developed for IEC-based composition have not necessarily proven very effective for professional use. This is due to the large difference between data representation used by IEC and authored classical music composition. To solve this difficulties, we purpose a new IEC approach to music composition based on classical music theory. In this paper, we describe an established system according to the above idea, and detail of making success of composition a piece.
