Exploring the symbiosis of Western and non-Western music: a study based on computational ethnomusicology and contemporary music composition

The goal of this PhD research was to study the opportunities for exploring ethnic musical content with computational tools, with the goal of establishing knowledge that could be used in artistic research that would offer new opportunities for Western music composition. This exploration encounters different challenges as well as opportunities. The challenges concern the accessibility of databases of ethnic music, while the opportunities concern the development of techniques that work for this music and that can be re-applied in musical composition.
