- Assisted Composition - Wikipedia , The
Free
Encyclopedia
"Computer
assisted composition (or computer-assisted composition) is the
technique
or practice of using a computer to aid in the composition of music,
though
the music itself may be performed either electronically or on
traditional,
non-electronic instruments without the use of a computer or electronic
device of any kind. Two important branches of computer-assisted
composition
are algorithmic composition and spectral music. Computer assisted
composition
is part of the general field of computer music.."
