Estimates put the canon of traditional Irish dance tunes at at
least seven thousand compositions. Given this diversity, a common
problem faced by musicians and ethnomusicologists is identifying
tunes from recordings. This work attempts to solve this problem by
developing a Content Based Music Information Retrieval (CBMIR)
system adapted to the characteristics of traditional Irish dance
music. Included is a comprehensive review of the domain of
traditional Irish music and three chapters of related work in the
fields of feature extraction, melodic similarity and music
information retrieval. A new software system is presented called
MATT2 (Machine Annotation of Traditional Tunes) whose goal is to
annotate recordings of traditional Irish dance music with useful
metadata. A new algorithm is also presented called TANSEY (Turn
ANnotation from SEts using SimilaritY profiles) that annotates sets
of tunes played segue as is the custom in traditional Irish dance
music.
