Details & Disclaimers

This is a fairly blunt tool — it searches for pure melodic matches, without considering context, cadences or local key changes. Please use with contextual knowledge and care!

Limitations: currently does not search 5-part chorales. Currently does not recognise cadences/phrase ends.
