Title: Fascinating, Captain.
Review: Computer-composed music is in its infancy, but David Cope's EMI (Experiments in Musical Intelligence) is at the forefront. Because the music is programmed to "sound like" Bach, Chopin, Mozart, Joplin, Gershwin and others, Cope's musical pastiches are more advanced, artistically, than similar efforts in computer-authored literature (see Racter "The Policeman's Beard Is Half-Constructed").Unfortunately, this first disc is all programmed on a Yamaha digital piano, with the result that it is fairly dry and monochromatic. The second disc, "Classical Music Composed By Computer," benefits from being performed (by good old humans) on a variety of instruments.
