Arcangelo Corelli – Trio Sonatas (A corpus of annotated scores)

This corpus of annotated MuseScore files has been created within the DCML corpus initiative and employs the DCML harmony annotation standard. It was relased together with and as part of the "workflow paper" (for the reference see below or the file CITATION.cff).

The corpus comprises 36 Sonate a tre, divided into 149 separate movements. Together they make up for three of the four famous cycles of 12 trio sonatas each:

Opus	Cycle	Publication	Included
1	12 sonate da chiesa	Rome 1681	Yes
2	12 sonate da camera	Rome 1685	No
3	12 sonate da chiesa	Rome 1689	Yes
4	12 sonate da camera	Rome 1694	Yes

Getting the data

download repository as a ZIP file
download a Frictionless Datapackage that includes concatenations of the TSV files in the four folders (measures, notes, chords, and harmonies) and a JSON descriptor:
- corelli.zip
- corelli.datapackage.json
clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/DCMLab/corelli.git

Data Formats

Each piece in this corpus is represented by five files with identical name prefixes, each in its own folder. For example, the first movement of the first trio sonata has the following files:

MS3/op01n01a.mscx: Uncompressed MuseScore 3.6.2 file including the music and annotation labels.
notes/op01n01a.notes.tsv: A table of all note heads contained in the score and their relevant features (not each of them represents an onset, some are tied together)
measures/op01n01a.measures.tsv: A table with relevant information about the measures in the score.
chords/op01n01a.chords.tsv: A table containing layer-wise unique onset positions with the musical markup (such as dynamics, articulation, lyrics, figured bass, etc.).
harmonies/op01n01a.harmonies.tsv: A table of the included harmony labels (including cadences and phrases) with their positions in the score.

Each TSV file comes with its own JSON descriptor that describes the meanings and datatypes of the columns ("fields") it contains, follows the Frictionless specification, and can be used to validate and correctly load the described file.

Opening Scores

After navigating to your local copy, you can open the scores in the folder MS3 with the free and open source score editor MuseScore. Please note that the scores have been edited, annotated and tested with MuseScore 3.6.2. MuseScore 4 has since been released which renders them correctly but cannot store them back in the same format.

Opening TSV files in a spreadsheet

Tab-separated value (TSV) files are like Comma-separated value (CSV) files and can be opened with most modern text editors. However, for correctly displaying the columns, you might want to use a spreadsheet or an addon for your favourite text editor. When you use a spreadsheet such as Excel, it might annoy you by interpreting fractions as dates. This can be circumvented by using Data --> From Text/CSV or the free alternative LibreOffice Calc. Other than that, TSV data can be loaded with every modern programming language.

Loading TSV files in Python

Since the TSV files contain null values, lists, fractions, and numbers that are to be treated as strings, you may want to use this code to load any TSV files related to this repository (provided you're doing it in Python). After a quick pip install -U ms3 (requires Python 3.10 or later) you'll be able to load any TSV like this:

import ms3

labels = ms3.load_tsv("harmonies/op01n01a.harmonies.tsv")
notes = ms3.load_tsv("notes/op01n01a.notes.tsv")

Score origin

To create the dataset we downloaded the musicXML conversion available on Craig Sapp's KernScores (thanks to the engraver(s) who first encoded the scores in **kern format), converted them to MuseScore, and had them corrected and completed by the transcription service tunescribers.com. This involved adding thorough bass figures throughout and engraving a few missing movements from scratch. The commission was performed based on the Pepusch prints available on the International Music Score Library Project (IMSLP) which are included in the folder pdf:

Opus	File	IMSLP
1	Corelli op. 1 12 Triosonaten - Partitur.pdf	https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/1666
3	Corelli op. 3 12 Triosonaten - Partitur.pdf	https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/1689
4	Corelli op. 4 12 Triosonaten - Partitur.pdf	https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ReverseLookup/1690

(The scan of op. 3 is missing page 46, corresponding to op03n12a)

Whenever pitches, bass figures or their placement were obviously wrong they have been corrected based on the Rome princeps editions.

Caveats

Wrong positions

Two files have different time signatures in the upper and lower staff pairs which leads to wrong positions:

op03n10d has 12/8 vs. 2/2
op04n06g has 12/8 vs. 4/4

Since the parser deals only with one time signature per measure, and since positions are computed additively, the positions are currently incorrect for

all events in these two pieces which
occur in staff 3 or 4
after beat 1.

As a remedy, staves 1 and 2 could be re-written in simple meters (2/2 or 4/4) sporting triplets. For now, users could multiply mc_onset values for staves 3 and 4 by 1.5 as a remedy. The quarterbeats would then need to be re-computed by adding the stretched onset values to the MC's quarterbeat.

`.warnings` files

As long as such files exist in the reviewed folder, the ms3 review command has detected

incongruent phrase beginnings { and endings }, and/or
harmony labels where over 60 % of the note heads in the segment are out-of-label, and/or
other warnings related to parsing the scores or annotations.

Pull requests addressing any of these warnings would be highly appreciated.

Instruments

The information on the four parts in the MuseScore files has not been curated. That concerns the staff names, brackets, behaviour of barlines, and instruments. If someone could send us a good configuration that looks and sounds decent, we would be glad to automatically apply it to the entire dataset.

File naming convention

For example, all files starting with op03n02 are movements of Sonata number 2 from opus 3. The sequence of movements is indicated by appended letters op03n02a, op03n02b, etc.
