The neural network completed the unfinished Beethoven's Tenth Symphony
Artificial intelligence helped complete Ludwig van Beethoven's Tenth Symphony, based on several surviving handwritten sketches and notes by the composer, according to SWI .
Florian Colombo, a programmer and researcher from the Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne, has worked on the project for many years. He named the project BeethovANN 10.1 and created it using a special neural network. She finished the work, singling out from Beethoven's drafts what could have become the Tenth Symphony.
Columbo presented the final version of the “symphony”. Further, the conductor Guillaume Bernie made a number of harmonic changes, and on the same evening the melody was demonstrated to the public at a concert in Lausanne (Switzerland). Performed by the Nexus Orchestra.
“It's nice to watch this. It's like being in a hospital and meeting a new life, ”said Bernie.
Beethoven's last Ninth Symphony was completed in 1824. In May of the same year, she was presented to the public at the composer's last concert in Vienna.
Earlier it was reported that the professor of music from the UK Timothy Jones completed the unfinished works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He worked on them for ten years. As a result of his experiment, the professor released an album with seven supplemented works. He worked on it for ten years.
