Abstract
It has been possible to depict the constructs of a theory of tonal music developed by Heinrich Schenker (1867-1935) as a system of computational processes. The basis of Schenker's theory involves the existence of musical proto-structures which expand into tonal compositions through a well-defined set of rewriting rules. On the basis of these rewriting rules, it becomes possible to describe musical structure in terms of tree transformations. Using the programming language LISP, we have implemented a data structure that models the process by which the hierarchy is created. To demonstrate our system, we present structural descriptions of excerpts of tonal music as LISP programs. While our data and control structures help to clarify many of Schenker's ideas, we shall also focus upon those aspects of the theory found during the course of this study to be problematic.
