| Overview: |
The Music Genre Database consists of 100 musical pieces in all with three pieces prepared for each of 33 genres and one for a cappella. The database is divided into 10 main categories of genres (popular, rock, dance, jazz, Latin, classical, marches, world, vocals, and traditional Japanese music) and 33 subcategories (popular, ballads, rock, heavy metal, rap/hip-hop, house, techno, funk, soul/R&B, big band, modern Jazz, fusion, bossa nova, samba, reggae, tango, baroque, classic, romantic, modern, brass band, blues, folk, country, gospel, African, Indian, flamenco, chanson, canzone, traditional-style Japanese popular music Enka, Japanese folk music Min'you, and ancient Japanese court music Gagaku). Note that this does not necessarily mean that music can be categorized in this way: these categories are used simply for convenience when recording them. All 100 pieces are original recordings with 73 being original compositions and 27 being existing public-domain pieces (indicated as ``Public Domain'' in the ``Composer'' column).
More detailed information about this database is described in our paper in the references.
