Abstract

In the application of digital data processing techniques to comparative musicology, it is an interesting subject to determine the type of scale in folk musi c and to compare the similarities in melody and rhythm between different musics. This paper describes two subjects: data entry technique for the realization of a music database and its application to comparative musicology. The former deals with dictation of melody sound. The latter concerns a method to find what scale is included in the melody, using knowledge in the modern ethno-musicology, and describes a certain measure of similarity of music.
