Bach Chorales Multiple Chord Labels (BCMCL) dataset
<p>The Bach Chorales Multiple Chord Labels dataset was proposed in our DLfM (Digital Library for Musicology) 2020 conference paper: "Automatic Chord Labelling: A Figured Bass Approach". There are four parallel tracks of chord labels, produced by each of the four rule-based algorithms (Algorithms A, B, C, and D). The chord labels of each algorithm can be found in each folder, where the music (Bach chorales) and annotations are presented in the MusicXML format. Overall, there are 120 Bach chorales (or 123 since there are three chorales with two versions) annotated this way.</p> <p>If you make use of BCMCL, please cite the following <a href="https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3424911.3425513">publication</a>:</p> <pre><code>@inproceedings{ju_automatic_2020, title = {Automatic {Chord} {Labelling}: {A} {Figured} {Bass} {Approach}}, shorttitle = {Automatic {Chord} {Labelling}}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 7th {International} {Conference} on {Digital} {Libraries} for {Musicology}}, author = {Ju, Yaolong and Margot, Sylvain and McKay, Cory and Fujinaga, Ichiro}, year = {2020}, pages = {27--31}, } </code></pre> <p>Please email to <strong>yaolong.ju@mail.mcgill.ca</strong> if you have any questions.</p>
