Download: Data Folder, Data Set Description
Abstract: The data set is composed of 60 chorales (5665 events) by J.S. Bach (1675-1750).
Each event of each chorale is labelled using 1 among 101 chord labels and described
through 14 features.

Data Set Information:
Pitch classes information has been extracted from MIDI sources downloaded
from (JSB Chorales)[[Web Link]]. Meter information has
been computed through the Meter program which is part of the Melisma
music analyser (Melisma)[[Web Link]].
Chord labels have been manually annotated by a human expert.
Attribute Information:
1. Choral ID: corresponding to the file names from (Bach Central)[[Web Link]].
2. Event number: index (starting from 1) of the event inside the chorale.
3-14. Pitch classes: YES/NO depending on whether a given pitch is present.
Pitch classes/attribute correspondence is as follows:
C -> 3
C#/Db -> 4
D -> 5
...
B -> 14
15. Bass: Pitch class of the bass note
16. Meter: integers from 1 to 5. Lower numbers denote less accented events,
higher numbers denote more accented events.
17. Chord label: Chord resonating during the given event.
