MusicXML Tools for Scores
We are creating a suite of tools to modify MusicXML files. You may find some of these tools helpful when working with scores.
These are not all complete yet, but we would appreciate your thoughts and advice about them.
Melody Chords
Add a simple Accompaniment to your MusicXML score.
For instance, a piano accompaniment for a choral score.
Trim Score
Not Complete Yet
Select a portion of a MusicXML score you want to keep with just the desired measures and notes.
Create and save a new MusicXML file with just the desired part of the original score.
Voice Leading
Not Complete Yet
Voice Leading Chords will read a melody from the first part in your MusicXML score, and add bass and chords notes to accompany the melody.
This is designed to be played when accompanying a singer or soloist.One chord is provided for each chord in the leadsheet – using voice leading and inversions to minimize hand movement while providing accompaniment.
Melody Accompaniment
Not Complete Yet
Melody Chords will read a melody from the first part in your MusicXML score, and add bass and chords notes to accompany the melody.
Rhythm Notation
Equally spaces out notes based on duration,
and optionally Adds “1 & 2 & 3 & …” as lyrics to your MusicXML score.
This may help with parsing out syncopated rhythms when learning a new melody.
