Abstract

In music, note durations and inter-onset intervals (IOIs) are crucial parameters that influence the rhythm and flow of a composition. Understanding their distribution helps in uncovering underlying patterns in numerous musical performances. This paper explores the hypothesis that these parameters conform to a normal distribution, which utilises a bell-shaped curve and is commonly used in statistics to model data that clusters around a mean value with symmetrical dispersion.
