Music similarity is an essential aspect of music retrieval, recommendation systems, and music analysis. Moreover, similarity is of vital interest for music experts, as it allows studying analogies and influences among composers and historical periods. Current approaches to musical similarity rely mainly on symbolic content, which can be expensive to produce and is not always readily available. Conversely, approaches using audio signals typically fail to provide any insight about the reasons behind the observed similarity. This research addresses the limitations of current approaches by focusing on the study of musical similarity using both symbolic and audio content. The aim of this research is to develop a fully explainable and interpretable system that can provide end-users with more control and understanding of music similarity and classification systems.
