US Patent 11646007 Generative composition with texture groups

A computer-implemented method of generating a musical composition containing a plurality of musical texture groups is disclosed. The method includes assembling musical texture groups from musical instrument components and associating therewith a tag expressing emotional textural connotation. The instrument components have musical textural classifiers selected from a set of pre-defined textural classifiers such that different instrument components may have a different subset of pre-defined textural classifiers. The textural classifiers within a texture group possess either no musical feature attribute or a single musical feature attribute and any number of musical accompaniment attributes. The method then generates at least one chord scheme to a narrative brief, to provide an emotional connotation to a series of events, the chord scheme generated by selecting and assembling Form Atoms. The final step includes applying a texture to the chord scheme to generate the musical composition reflecting the narrative brief.
