ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to analyze music works created by an AI music generator, and to contemplate the educational implications of music. The four music generators that satisfy following three conditions were chosen as the subject of study: create music automatically, have the variety of voices, and input contents contain musical elements. Then three music works were created by each chosen generator and analyzed. The analysis of music was based on the elemental analysis that have been using traditionally in Western Music. The sub-analysis elements were selected based on the contents presented in the music curriculum, and those are rhythm, melody, harmony, and form. As a conclusion of the study, musical works created by an AI music generator utilize various rhythms and melodic elements, but there is partial mismatch in harmony and form. Another conclusion is that the AI music generator creates the music the machine wants, and the user's own musical capabilities are required to obtain the music the user wants. Lastly, an AI music generator demands the AI music literacy that accurately understand the elements and concepts to make music that can be implemented in a media.
