An automatic melody composer composes a melody on a phrase by phrase basis. A phrase database storage stores data of many and various phrases. A generating index database storage stores records of music generating index. Each record describes or indicates appropriate phrases in the phase database and how melody is modified or developed in moving from one musical time unit to another. A decoder selects an index record from the generating index database, retrieves, from the phrase database, phrase components according to the index record, and combines them into a phrase. Thus, the composer quickly provides a natural melody formed with a chain of phrases without requiring complicated data processing. |
