Abstract
This paper presents a new system, based on genetic algorithms, to compose music pieces automatically based on analysis of the exemplar MIDI files. The aim of this project is to create a new music piece which is based on the information in the source pieces. This system extracts musical features from two MIDI files and automatically generates a new music piece using a genetic algorithm. The user specifies the length of the piece to create, and the weighting of musical features from each of the MIDI files to guide the generation. This system will provide the composer a new music piece based on two selected music pieces.
