Romantic Piano Strudel 300

Chat-format pairs mapping a natural-language description of solo piano music to Strudel live-coding code that plays it.

Source and attribution

All music is derived from the MAESTRO dataset (MIDI and Audio Edited for Synchronous TRacks and Organization), made available by Google LLC under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 (see https://magenta.tensorflow.org/datasets/maestro).

No MIDI or audio files are included here.

How it was made

  • 300 clips of 16 seconds each were cut from MAESTRO performances of Romantic-era piano music (Chopin, Schubert, Liszt, Schumann, Brahms, Mendelssohn).
  • Each clip was converted to a Strudel program (strudel/NNN.js): one cycle = 16 s, note timing follows the performance using @-weighted note/rest steps, with per-note velocities.
  • Musical features (pulse, key/mode, density, dynamics, etc.) were extracted per clip (metadata/features.jsonl) and used to write descriptive prompts (metadata/prompts.jsonl).

Splits

split rows clips
train 690 230
validation 105 35
test 105 35

Each clip has 3 prompt variants. Splits are by clip; no clip appears in more than one split.

Record format

Each line in data/*.jsonl:

{"id": "000", "messages": [
  {"role": "user", "content": "give me some warm and expressive solo piano, like chords woven through the notes. use a gentle touch; keep the changes fairly relaxed."},

Buckets

Per-clip bucket assignments are in metadata/buckets.json; criteria and examples in metadata/BUCKETS.md.

composer clips
Chopin 83
Schubert 81
Liszt 75
Schumann 30
Brahms 23
Mendelssohn 8

Other dimensions:

  • tempo: fast ≥120 BPM 104, moderate 80–120 82, unclear pulse 82, slow <80 32
  • key_mode: minor 102, major 101, ambiguous 97
  • density: medium 90, busy 90, sparse 60, very busy 60
  • dynamics: soft / medium / loud, 100 each
  • code_length: short 100, medium 99, long 101
  • mood: calm_intimate 95, stormy_dramatic 70, dark_melancholy 55, bright_playful 50, warm_romantic 30

Files

  • data/ — train/validation/test chat pairs
  • strudel/ — 300 Strudel programs
  • metadata/ — prompts.jsonl, features.jsonl, buckets.json, BUCKETS.md, Metadata_romantic_music.csv
  • evaluate.py — evaluation script (imports music_features and strudel_runtime helper modules from the original project, which are not included here)

Known limitations

  • Targets contain long lines of counted @-weight notes and rests; small fine-tuned models tend to loop/repeat when generating them.
  • Tempo estimates have half/double-time ambiguity; key estimates are heuristic.
  • Prompts are template-generated from extracted features, not human-written.
