Abstract: A system for automatically generating musical compositions on demand one after another without duplication. The system can produce such compositions upon demand in a variety of genres and forms so that concerts based on generated compositions will have a varied mix of pieces incorporated therein. The system incorporates a "weighted exhaustive search" process that is used to analyze the various aspects in developing the composition, from small-scale, note-to-note melodic construction to large-scale harmonic motions. The process maintains a balance between melodic, harmonic and contrapuntal elements in developing the composition. In general, the "weighted exhaustive search" process involves generating a plurality of solutions for producing each element of the composition. Each one of the plurality of solutions is analyzed with a series of "questions". Each solution is then scored based upon how each question is "answered" or how much that particular solution fits the parameters of the question.
