Hi,
I've found a very interesting application, Improvisor
*Impro-Visor* (short for “Improvisation Advisor”) is a music
notation program designed to help jazz musicians compose and hear
solos similar to ones that might be improvised. The objective is to
improve understanding of solo construction and tune chord changes.
There are other, secondary, things it can do, such as improvise on
its own. It has also been used for transcription. Because
rhythm-section (e.g. piano, bass, drums) accompaniment is
automatically generated from chords, Impro-Visor can be used as a
play-along device. Now having a wider array of accompaniment styles
<http://www.cs.hmc.edu/%7Ekeller/jazz/improvisor/Styles.htm>, its
use is not limited to jazz. Distributed with Impro-Visor is "The
Imaginary Book
<http://www.cs.hmc.edu/%7Ekeller/jazz/improvisor/ImaginaryBookIndex.html>",
a chords-only fakebook with chord progressions to about 2500 tunes.

Afaik it's GPL software and that makes me dreaming about having
Lilypond functionality in it... It has an midi export function, so
maybe the midi can be converted to lilypond?
Are people here working with this application?
I tried to convert the midi file generated by Impro-Visor, by
midi2lily and Rosegarden. But got some errors
Both results, check attachment
Here is the midi file:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MSTCLK4J
\r
I hope these files contains more info ;)
See attachments
Maybe it's possible to improve the midi2lily convert from Improvisor to
Lilypond (maybe via Rosegarden)?
Is this possible? What should be improved? The Midi export function of
Impro-visor or the midi import function of rosegarden or midi2ly script?
Or both?
Suggestions, ideas?
Regards,
