Dear child has many names. In [[this call]{style=“text-decoration: underline;”}]{style=“color: #0000ee;”} for a special journal issue on music and robotics, I see the use of the word music content processing (MCP). I have been around in the larger music technology community for a while now, but I haven’t really thought of this as a concept in itself before. Using Google as a reference, I see that “music content processing” actually returns 34 100 hits, so obviously it is being used quite extensively.
