Automated music composition and generation system employing virtual musical instrument libraries for producing notes contained in the digital pieces of automatically composed music

An automated music composition and generation system comprising:

• a system user interface for enabling system users to review and select one or more musical experience descriptors, as well as time and/or space parameters;
• and
• an automated music composition and generation engine, operably connected to said system user interface, for receiving, storing and processing said musical experience descriptors and time and/or space parameters selected by the system user, so as to automatically compose and generate a one or more digital pieces of music in response to said musical experience descriptors and time and/or space parameters selected by said system user, wherein:
• each said one or more digital pieces of music contains a set of musical notes arranged and performed in said one or more digital pieces of music,
• said one or more digital pieces of music has multiple characteristics expressed throughout said digital piece of music as represented by said musical experience descriptors and time and/or space parameters supplied by said system user to said automated music composition and generation engine,
• said automated music composition and generation engine includes:
• a digital piece creation subsystem for creating and delivering said digital piece of music to said system user interface,
• a digital audio sample producing subsystem supported by an instrument library for producing digital audio samples of the set of musical notes contained in said one or more digital pieces of music, and
• a parameter mapping configuration associating an emotional descriptor, a style descriptor and a time descriptor to a probability table for a note length, a probability table for a tempo and a probability table for a metric, of the automated music composition, wherein the instrument library includes multiple natural recordings of multiple instruments, each recording including a single note or chord made at a range of volumes for a same single note or chord, and with a range of velocities and a range of effects for the same single note or chord, and tagged with meta-data with an identifying information for each single note or chord.
