Mahler-Unfinished
An artificially intelligent algorithm completed Gustav Mahler’s unfinished Tenth Symphony by feeding OpenAI’s model MuseNet with the first ten notes of the musical theme of Mahler’s 10th Symphony. After the generated melody had been orchestrated by Nikrang by hand for an orchestra, the project Mahler-Unfinished was performed by the Bruckner Orchestra Linz at the Big Concert Night at the 2019 Ars Electronica Festival
