Abstract
The physical gestures that operate music instruments are responsible for the qualities of the sound being produced in a performance. Gestural information is thereby crucial for a model of music performance, paired with a model of sound synthesis where this information is applied. The highly constrained nature of performers' gestures makes this task suitable to be modeled via a constraint-based approach, coupled with a strategy aimed at maximizing the gestural comfort of performers. This software implements an approach that we proposed to illustrate the problem representation and the search strategy. Please refer to the following journal article: Radicioni, D.P. and Lombardo, V., A Constraint-Based Approach for Annotating Music Scores with Gestural Information, Constraints, 12(4):405-428, 2007.
