The TEI Special Interest Group in Music (Music SIG)

Agenda

Bring together users of the TEI who are interested in incorporating encoding for music into their TEI documents or in encoding music-related documents.
Provide recommendations and examples for encoding music notation within TEI.
Provide integration of TEI with Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) and MusicXML
Provide recommendations on and, when possible, contribute to the development of tools for WYSIWYG generation and dynamic web-based rendering of encoded music.
Discuss the use of TEI for markup of music theoretic terms and references to scores and performances.

Webspace

The webspace for the Music SIG is available for the distribution of material produced by the group, such as ODDs and tutorials.

http://www.tei-c.org/SIG/Music/

Output

October 2011: A paper at ISMIR 2011 introduced the role of ODD in MEI, discussed a sample extension, and proposed a method to gather community members' customizations.

January 2011: The new TEI with Music Notation customization introduces a new element for marking the presence of notated music in texts and combines Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) elements for representing the notation itself. Find the ODDs and the Guidelines on the SIG webspace

November 2010: A panel called "Encoding Text, Music and Music Literatures" has been presented at the TEI Members Meeting 2010 in Zadar, Croatia. Three papers discussed encoding texts with references to music; using ODD for MEI; rendering music notation within a TEI document.

-* MEI[http://www.lib.virginia.edu/digital/resndev/mei/], which is currently developed by Perry Roland at the University of Virginia
+*Bring together users of the TEI who are interested in '''incorporating encoding for music''' into their TEI documents or in '''encoding music-related documents'''.
-* MusicXML[http://www.musicxml.org/], which is developed by Recordare LLC (Michael Good)
+*Provide recommendations and examples for encoding music notation within TEI.
-* MPEG-4 part 23[http://www.interactivemusicnetwork.org/mpeg-ahg/], which was formerly known as Wedelmusic.
+*Provide integration of TEI with Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) and MusicXML
+*Provide recommendations on and, when possible, contribute to the development of tools for WYSIWYG generation and dynamic web-based rendering of encoded music.
+*Discuss the use of TEI for markup of music theoretic terms and references to scores and performances.
-The SIG will concentrate on MEI first, as it is designed for critical music editions. This decision does not exclude the other formats from further evaluations.

-The SIG has to provide recommendations and examples for the integration of music encoding within TEI. This will start with music examples in Common Western Notation, but shall be extended to other notations as much as possible.

Three papers discussed encoding texts with references to music; [http://www.slideshare.net/rviglianti/making-mei-feel-odd using ODD for MEI]; rendering music notation within a TEI document.
-The question of integration v collaboration of MEI and TEI was left open until further evaluations: it is not yet sure if the (digital-)musicological community (which is not as large as the TEI community) will accept to definitively incorporate MEI into TEI. This political question will be addressed later.
+=== Meetings ===
-In the long term the SIG will work on determining the actual similarity of the header parts and the textCrit / meiCrit modules.
+* [[SIG:Music:Meeting2013|Agenda for meeting: Rome, Italy, 03 October 2013]]
-It would be desirable to allow TEI encodings in a MEI document (at appropriate locations) and vice versa.
+* [[SIG:Music:Meeting2011|Report of meeting: Würzburg, Germany, 15 October 2011]]
+* [[SIG:Music:Meeting2010|Report of meeting: Zadar, Croatia, 12 November 2010]]
+* [[SIG:Music:Meeting2009|Report of business meeting: Ann Arbor, 14 November 2009]]
+* [[SIG:Music:Meeting2008|Agenda and report of first meeting: London, 8 November 2008]]
-For example, a musical document with text considered worth to be encoded in TEI could be represented as a MEI document with TEI inclusions,
-or it could be represented within TEI, where the <teiHeader> is mandatory and the MEI element <mei:work> could substitute or go alongside with <text> and/or <facsimile>.
+=== Convenor ===
-On the other hand, mainly textual document with music embedded could make use of the latter example.
-On order to reach this interoperability, the technical improvement of MEI is a first objective to be reached .
-For all of these tasks, Johannes Kepper suggested that the SIG might cooperate with the research project called Digital Music Notation Data Model and Prototype Delivery System (conducted by Roland and Kepper). This project will translate MEI from a one-man-show to a community-based project, and will discuss the political issues concerned with the collaboration / integration with TEI.
-MEI will have to consider to refer in its documentation to the authority lists and controlled values defined by the MPEG4.23 standard wherever appropriate. This has no consequences on the concepts and model of MEI, but helps to standardize the interpretation of certain basic symbols and elements.
-For the MPEG4.23 standard documentation please refer to: http://www.interactivemusicnetwork.org/mpeg-ahg/w8632-MPEG-SMR-part-23-rev-public.pdf
-Furthermore, the development of tools for WYSIWYG generation and dynamic rendering of MEI should be supported by the SIG as much as possible.
-'''Short-term agenda - first steps:'''
-For the further discussion about MEI's independence it is important to compare the headers. A first question to be addressed is: "is it possible for MEI to use an extended TEI header?"
-A first attempt to answer that question might be to "oddify" MEI, as this allows an easier comparison of individual parts. At the same time, it allows the generation of different schemas as well as DTDs.
-At the same time, the primitive objects and values of MEI shall be compared to their equivalents (if existing) in the MPEG standard.

-**musical text / performance (the case of IEEE 1599)
-*2.30 – 3.00: Open discussion (setting SIG agenda)
-**new encoding model or namespace recommendation?
-**MusicXML, MEI, IEEE 1599, others
-**publishing: what are the possibilities at the moment?
-*3.00 – 3.30: Workshop/Brainstorming
-**Perhaps work together on an example
-**Defining long-term work of the group
-===Description===
-The Music in TEI SIG seeks to bring together users of the TEI who are interested in incorporating encoding for music into their TEI documents.
-The goal of the SIG is to examine the current possibilities for encoding both the physical representation of music and the symbolic representation of different notation systems, and to decide on a preliminary recommendation/agenda for music encoding in the TEI, whether directly via adoption of new elements or by importing a recommended namespace from an existing external schema.
-*Encoding western music notation from all time periods, from ancient through modern.
-*Encoding music and text together as well as music on its own.
