Peachnote is a music score search engine and analysis platform. The system is the first of its kind and can be thought as an analog of Google Books Ngram Viewer and Google Books search for music scores. Hundreds of thousands of music scores are being digitized by libraries all over the world. In contrast to books, they generally remain inaccessible for content-based retrieval and algorithmic analysis. There is no analogue to Google Books for music scores, and there exist no large corpora of symbolic music data that would empower musicology in the way large text corpora are empowering computational linguistics, sociology, history, and other humanities that have printed word as their major source of evidence about their research subjects. We want to help change that. Peachnote provides visitors and researchers access to a massive amount of symbolic music data. | Peachnote is a music score search engine and analysis platform.

Building up the corpora of musical sheets requires significant amount of computing capacity. Millions of sheets need to be converted from JPG images to music XML, sometimes multiple times, using different configurations of the converter algorightm. Peachnote is already integrated with the Simple Queue Service (SQS) of Amazon. Amazon SQS will remain the coordinator of computation, with site(s) of the EGI Federated Cloud used for the calculations. | |||
