Talking Music - the idea
- Designed with Design for all in mind from the outset: i.e. all musical information should be available for all situations.
- Solve the problems to offer navigation and abstraction within the score.
- Using a structure similar to Braille Music; Talking Music is split into fragments which are then transformed into a spoken audio description alongside a midi representation of the fragment.
- The midi representation is uninterpreted, allowing the user freedom to interpret style and performance themselves.
- Note pitch and duration is the core piece of information. Other information is provided around this.
