The seminar “From Score to Sound: Music Production in the AI Era” will explore the evolution of AI-driven methods for automatic music generation, from the early use of Recurrent Neural Networks to the latest Foundational Models. The talk will examine the shift from symbolic score modelling to audio-centric and multimodal approaches. It will also highlight the technical and conceptual advancements that have enabled the development of transformer and diffusion-based models, paving the way for today’s prompt-to-music systems.
