Abstract

Writing chorales in the style of Bach has been a music theory exercise for generations of music students. As such it is not surprising that automatic Bach chorale harmonization has been a topic in music technology for decades. We suggest several improvements to current neural network solutions based on musicological insights into human choral composition practices. Evaluations with expert listeners show that the generated chorales closely resemble Bach’s harmonization style.
