ScorePrompts: Natural-Language Exploration of Symbolic Music Scores through Analysis

RESUMO

We present ScorePrompts, an interactive system in which users upload a score, receive natural-language descriptions of its musical structure, ask questions about specific passages, and inspect the corresponding analysis results in staff notation. Specialist MIR components first estimate harmony, tonality, cadences, formal boundaries, texture, and note-level roles, organizing their outputs at note, beat, measure, and piece levels. A schema-constrained language model converts these results into descriptions rather than inferring musical structure directly from raw MusicXML. For questions such as "What changes in measures 14-18?", a deterministic router selects the relevant measures and analytical levels and returns a concise response together with the underlying results and caveats. Verovio renders the score and links the returned information to cited measures and note-level attributes. The interface also exposes intermediate tables and disagreements between analytical levels. ScorePrompts is intended for exploratory score analysis and explanation, not score editing. The demo shows how existing analysis models, constrained language generation, Q&A retrieval, and notation-based visualization can provide natural-language access to symbolic music analysis while keeping intermediate results inspectable.
