This seminar presents what has been achieved during the four years of the MIRAGE project, leading in particular to the digital version of the Norwegian Catalogue of Folk Music. We are also conceiving tools to automatically transcribe and analyse audio recordings of folk music, and are launching a transcription service for music professionals.

Free entrance, no registration required.
