The Impossible Music of Black MIDI
I immediately thought of a quote from the movie Amadaus (About Mozart)<p>EMPEROR: Of course I do. It's very good. Of course now and then - just now and then - it gets a touch elaborate.<p>MOZART: What do you mean, Sire?<p>EMPEROR: Well, I mean occasionally it seems to have, how shall one say? [he stops in difficulty; turning to Orsini-Rosenberg] How shall one say, Director?<p>ORSINI-ROSENBERG: Too many notes, Your Majesty?<p>EMPEROR: Exactly. Very well put. Too many notes.<p>MOZART: I don't understand. There are just as many notes, Majesty, as are required. Neither more nor less.<p>EMPEROR: My dear fellow, there are in fact only so many notes the ear can hear in the course of an evening. I think I'm right in saying that, aren't I, Court Composer?<p>SALIERI: Yes! yes! er, on the whole, yes, Majesty.<p>MOZART: But this is absurd!<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCud8H7z7vU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCud8H7z7vU</a><p>This certainly is an interesting area to explorer musically. Want can we do with a piano if we had more than ten notes to play at a time. Right now it is HOW many can we play and still sound musical from the samples I saw.
