## Polyphony RNN

This model applies language modeling to polyphonic music generation using an LSTM. Unlike melodies, this model needs to be capable of modeling multiple simultaneous notes. Taking inspiration from [BachBot](http://bachbot.com/), we model polyphony as a single stream of note events with special START, STEP_END, and END symbols. Within a step, notes are sorted by pitch in descending order.
This model applies language modeling to polyphonic music generation using an LSTM. Unlike melodies, this model needs to be capable of modeling multiple simultaneous notes. Taking inspiration from [BachBot](http://bachbot.com/) (described in [*Automatic Stylistic Composition of Bach Choralies with Deep LSTM*](https://ismir2017.smcnus.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/156_Paper.pdf)), we model polyphony as a single stream of note events with special START, STEP_END, and END symbols. Within a step, notes are sorted by pitch in descending order.

For example, using the default quantizing resolution of 4 steps per quarte note, a sequence containing only a C Major chord with a duration of one quarter note would look like this:
