Department Name: Engineering Science
Abstract
'Unlocking Musicology: Digital Engagement for Digital Research' will take methods and analyses from musicologists and show that, because they were undertaken digitally, we can more easily make use of them beyond academia. This might be so that commercial companies, like publishers, can better index or display their music and music-related holdings; or to help cultural and charitable bodies holding rich collections of our musical heritage make these more accessible. The digital foundation for this reuse was laid in our precursor Transforming Musicology project, which adopted Linked Data descriptions during development of its data, methods and results.
The project will build four proof-of-concept demonstrators, with four different partners, as examples of our approach. These will be made available online for all (including the worldwide public) to explore, and unlock novel and exciting ways of accessing musical content.
With our first partner, the New York Philharmonic orchestra, we will create Linked Data for their Leon Levy Digital Archives, then assign Semantic Web relationships with similar corpora of concert ephemera in the UK. Our demonstrator will allow users to browse seamlessly between collections using automatically generated links of, for example, performances of the same work by different orchestras, or following guest conductors as they move between ensembles. Digital items from the archive will enrich these explorations, such as production photographs, or annotated conducting scores.
We will work with the Répertoire International de Littérature Musicale (RILM) to analyse the content in their comprehensive international bibliography of writings on music covering publications from the early 19th century to the present. Here we will use network analyses to identify communities of interests and terms, and provide interactive visualisations to assist the publisher and their customers find material in their holdings.
As well as large collections where we help explore the unknown, we will also develop novel user interfaces to explain music that is very well studied. Working with Prof. Laurence Dreyfus, we will design a 'digital companion' to illustrate his reappraisal of Wagner's use of motifs and themes in Lohengrin. Here we will deploy cutting-edge music encoding and Linked Data technology to highlight, then display or play, the motifs in Prof. Dreyfus's narrative. Synchronised multimedia content will be automatically configured as the reader moves through the essay, interacts with a score, or as a narrated video by Prof. Dreyfus is played. Alternatively the user can drive the experience along their own pathway, with the essay, video, audio, and notation being retrieved as they browse.
Our final demonstrator will be in partnership with the Internet Archive, custodians of the Wayback Machine and the Live Music Archive, which contains over 170,000 high quality recordings of live concerts. While computers can be used to automatically analyse these audio files and perform basic retrieval tasks, the typical characteristics of a live show - improvisation, audience noise, stage banter, variable acoustics - often confound algorithms. We will take a more nuanced approach, using tools which can combine computational analyses with musicological judgement, to search for 'lost' performances of band standards, and see how artists change their performance of the same song over time.
During the project we will share our progress and insights with our partners, and pass on how they can use these methods for themselves. At the end of the project we will host a public showcasing event in Oxford with a lecture and hands-on demonstrations of the proof-of-concepts we've developed with our partners.

Planned Impact
'Unlocking Musicology: Digital Engagement for Digital Research' will demonstrate that the methods and techniques of digital musicology can be effectively reapplied in non-academic contexts, and that their digital nature is a transformational enabler in doing so. The particular approach taken in Transforming Musicology, of ensuring workflows and results are well described using Linked Data, is the foundation for this re-use, and is a validation of that digital realisation. Academic digital musicologists will be able to take this project as a template and inspiration for their future impact and engagement. Furthermore, project activities will inform our own future research: through experience of testing our methods and tools against new data, and in identifying new digital musicology research challenges while working with our partners' collections.
Our partners - writers, publishers, and third sector archives - will find their collections unlocked by the considered analytical approaches developed by musicologists, which can be reapplied and adapted due to their digital realisation. We will create specific Proof of Concept demonstrators for each partner and their collection. We will also release our tools and documentation for their reuse and adoption within our partner organisations, and deliver workshops to embed our approaches in their work.
The musically-interested general public will benefit from gain greater insight and easier access into the rich cultural materials in our partner's archives and collections, and new interfaces to help them understand and explore contexts and arguments. Our proof of concepts will be accessible to all via the web, with our software freely available for others to reuse and adapt.

Lohengrin TimeMachine: Musicological Multimedia Made with MELD
Title | Lohengrin TimeMachine Digital Companion |
Description | The Lohengrin TimeMachine Digital Companion is a touch-based tablet app for exploration and visualisation of the motives in Wagner's opera Lohengrin, based upon an analysis by Prof. Laurence Dreyfus in his essay "Asking a Forbidden Question: A new view of musical themes in Wagner's Lohengrin". The Digital Companion was created by the Unlocking Musicology project (AH/R004803/1), and includes an enriched version of the essay alongside novel interactive explorations of score (notation), libretto, orchestration, and audio. The app also includes a 30 minute video "Rethinking Wagner's 'Leitmotifs': An introduction to the Lohengrin TimeMachine". The Digital Companion was built using technology in the MELD framework (Music Encoding and Linked Data), which was developed by a team at the University of Oxford through the EPSRC-funded FAST project (EP/L019981/1). |
Type Of Art | Artefact (including digital) |
Year Produced | 2019 |
Impact | The application is intended to be accessible to enthusiastic amateurs as well as scholars, and concerns Wagner's use of motives in his early opera, Lohengrin, arguing for a more sophisticated understanding than 'Leitmotif' guides often communicate. |

Description | Through four partnerships -- with RILM, the New York Philharmonic Archives, the Internet Archive, and Laurence Dreyfus -- Unlocking Musicology has demonstrated that methods and techniques from digital musicology can be applied effectively in broader, non-academic, contexts. Behind each of the software demonstrators developed with our partners, the project used Linked Data as a common approach for bringing together the different formats of digital material associated with music, be it text, image, score, or audio. |
Exploitation Route | The 'Lohengrin TimeMachine Digital Companion' and 'Listening through Time' demonstrators provide a template for translating abstract or academic analyses into interactive multimedia software applications. Videos and live versions of the software have been made available online, for reference. The approach taken in Unlocking Musicology is suitable for use by libraries and other digital collections of music-related material, indeed we have since developed an additional demonstrator in partnership with the Digital Delius project using material with the British Library. The source code for these demonstrators is publicly available, as is the source code for the underlying MELD framework used by the apps, providing a ready foundation for future use by others. Source code for the Semantic Alignment and Linking Tool (SALT) software is also freely available, as used by Unlocking Musicology to undertake semantic alignment over RILM's bibliographic data. A description of this work is available online, so that further holders of bibliographic metadata might adopt these tools and techniques. Our investigation of the Internet Archive Live Music Archive provides a reference example of a study using a large-scale audio dataset, and is available online. It builds upon existing metadata and audio feature data published by the CALMA activity in the FAST project, which in turn uses openly available algorithms which could be used with other large scale audio datasets. |

Description | Findings from Unlocking Musicology were applied throughout the project to the tools and approaches used to explore musicological data from RILM, the New York Philharmonic Archives, the Lohengrin TimeMachine Digital Companion, and the Internet Archive Live Music Archive. In addition, innovations in use of our MELD (Music Encoding and Linked Data) framework for annotation of live music performances have already contributed to public understanding of music resources through our collaboration with the Digital Delius project and British Library. Alongside demonstrating and illuminating specific new uses of the digital materials held by these organisations, and the value this adds, the project has successfully transferred knowledge about tools and approaches into these non-academic contexts. These findings have also been summarised and presented to a wider audience of professionals and the interested general public through our 'Narratives through Data' engagement event. |

PI Contribution | Through participation in the Digital Delius project, we extended beyond our initially expected involvement to use a MELD annotation tool developed in Unlocking Musicology during a string quartet masterclass study in February 2018. This work then became part of a public event for Digital Delius at the British Library. The underlying MELD software framework used in this work was developed during the FAST project by the team at the University of Oxford e-Research Centre. |
Collaborator Contribution | The University of Oxford Faculty of Music organised and ran the string quartet masterclass, and the Digital Delius project. |
Impact | An informational video of the string quartet masterclass was produced and published by the Faculty of Music. The masterclass annotation experiment was included during presentations at a public event held at the British Library. The masterclass annotation experiment formed an element of the work reported in our paper reported elsewhere in this submission (doi:10.1145/3273024.3273038) The masterclass annotation experiment formed an element of our presentation at the "Scores of Scores" event reported elsewhere in this submission. This was a multi-disciplinary digital musicology collaboration, brining together aspects of computer science, information engineering, and musicology. |

Organisation | Internet Archive |
Country | United States |
Sector | Charity/Non Profit |
PI Contribution | This was a three-way collaboration between the AHRC-funded Unlocking Musicology project, the Internet Archive, and the EPSRC-funded FAST project. In earlier work, researchers from the FAST project at the University of Oxford and Queen Mary University of London had created a dataset (CALMA - Computational Analysis of the Live Music Archive), layering Linked Data metadata and computationally extracted features over audio recordings held in the Internet Archive's Live Music Archive. The University of Oxford team then created investigatory and analytic software tools (rCALMA) through which to empirically explore this data. In the Unlocking Musicology project, researchers at the University of Oxford e-Research Centre used the rCALMA tools to undertake a musicological investigation within the Live Music Archive, via the CALMA dataset. These investigations focussed on the music of the bands The Smashing Pumpkins and The Grateful Dead. For the latter, this was combined with archival research in the Grateful Dead Archives, part of the University of California Santa Cruz Libraries Special Collections. |
Collaborator Contribution | The Internet Archive contributed support, guidance, advice and expertise in accessing the Live Music Archive data. This was crucial for our initial musicological surveys of such a large-scale resource, both in terms of computational access, and identifying a fertile scope for beginning our studies. |
Impact | This is a multi-disciplinary collaboration combining elements of computer science, information engineering, musicology, and the cataloguing and archiving activities of the Internet Archive. Reflections on our initial musicological findings have been published as a 'microsite' on the Unlocking Musicology website. |
