>Synthesizing phrasing with a computer."
>Musical Sculpting is a system that allows singers and instrumentalists to
>use MIDI for working out their phrasing prior to physically playing an
>instrument or singing. The system reduces musical expression to just three
>variables, the musical equivalent of the three primary colors. Users can
>produce any conceivable phrasing effect by manipulating these three
>variables in a graphic environment that controls an acoustic piano (such as
>the Yamaha Disklavier PRO).
>
>Initially conceived for disabled pianists as a way to replace fingers with a
>computer mouse, the system has other potential uses as well:
>* for singers with minimal playing skills - to craft high level
>accompaniments
>* for music students - as a phrasing tutor
>* for general learners - as a creative tool for learning music in advanceof
>learning to play an instrument

>composed.
