Proposal of Algorithm for Designating the Person in Charge of Page Turn of PEANUTS Considering the Concert Program

Abstract

In recent years, with the spread of applications such as electronic musical scores has been developed. However, existing electronic musical score applications were developed considering individual use (principally by pianists), and when using electronic musical score systems for a wind orchestra, for example, the load placed on the musical performers are effectively the same as when using paper scores. Therefore, in this study we were taking advantage of the characteristics of the tablet terminal, was carried out a proposal and trial production of the electronic musical score system PEANUTS for wind orchestra. Music of the data to be used in the PEANUTS is presupposed to reuse the score of paper that is currently being used. In PEANUTS, was focused on page turn as a load applied to the performer when playing musical piece in wind orchestra, we have proposed system of designating the person in charge of page turn to reduce the load based on algorithm of designating the person in charge of page turn for single music. However, the concert of wind orchestra usually play multiple music. In this paper, we were carried out the evaluation experiment considering the concert program. We were consider to resolve bias of the load value on the part of the performers by considering the concert program.
