Music Animation Machine DVD #2

Music Animation Machine DVD #2

I gave my first DVD the title "DVD #1" to serve as a reminder to myself to keep working on the next one. Here's what I'm planning to include on it

Composer	Title	Performer	Visualization style	Permission	Status
Gabrieli	Canzon per sonare no. 2	SM	standard	none	need better brass samples
J. S. Bach	In Dulci Jubilo	SM	standard	none	rendition
J. S. Bach	WTK I, 13, F-sharp Major, Prelude	SM	undecided	none	rendition
J. S. Bach	WTK I, 13, F-sharp Major, Fugue	SM	shapes	none	port animation software
J. S. Bach	Brandenburg 4	undecided	standard	undecided	can I make a good enough rendition myself?
J. S. Bach	Widerstehe doch der Sünde, 3rd movement	undecided	standard	in progress	whose recording can I get permission to use?
Domenico Scarlatti	Sonata, K. 502	SM	standard	none	rendition
G. P. Telemann	Paris Quartet	Concerto Amabile	standard	yes	analysis software

J. Tenney	Wake	undecided	custom	in progress	port animation software
S. Malinowski	Fugue to Stanley Krebs	SM	standard	yes	rendition, string samples
S. Malinowski	Fugue for Friday	SM	standard	yes	decide instrumentation

The biggest hurdle in all of this is writing a new version of the Music Animation Machine software that will let me synchronize MIDI data to existing audio recordings; this is required for the Telemann selection, the Bach cantata movement, the guitar music, and Tenney's Wake (if I decided to use a live recording).

The second biggest job is inventing the animation to go with James Edwards' recordings; guitar music is a special world, and I'd like to reflect that in the visualization.
