Modular analysis procedures for use alone or applied with music21.analysis.windowed.WindowedAnalysis class.
All procedures should inherit from music21.analysis.discrete.DiscreteAnalysis, or provide a similar interface.
The music21.analysis.discrete.KrumhanslSchmuckler (for algorithmic key detection) and music21.analysis.discrete.Ambitus (for pitch range analysis) provide examples.
Public interface to discrete analysis methods to be applied to a Stream given as an argument. Methods return process-specific data format. See base-classes for details.
Analysis methods can be specified as arguments or by use of a method keyword argument. If method is the class name, that class is returned. Otherwise, the indentifiers list of all DiscreteAnalysis subclass objects will be searched for matches. The first match that is found is returned.
>>> from music21 import *
>>> s = corpus.parse('bach/bwv66.6')
>>> analysis.discrete.analyzeStream(s, 'Krumhansl')
<music21.key.Key of f# minor>
>>> analysis.discrete.analyzeStream(s, 'ambitus')
<music21.interval.Interval m21>
>>> analysis.discrete.analyzeStream(s, 'key')
<music21.key.Key of f# minor>
>>> analysis.discrete.analyzeStream(s, 'range')
<music21.interval.Interval m21>
Note that the same results can be obtained by calling “analyze” directly on the stream object:
>>> s.analyze('key')
<music21.key.Key of f# minor>
>>> s.analyze('range')
<music21.interval.Interval m21>
Parent class for analytical methods.
Each analytical method returns a discrete numerical (or other) results as well as a color. Colors can be used in mapping output.
Analytical methods may make use of a referenceStream to configure the processor on initialization.

- getSolution(sStream)¶
Return a music21 Key object defining the results of the analysis. Do not call process before calling this method, as this method calls process.
