Music Theory App

While Sierra Schmidt studied music at Salt Lake Community College, she led a project team of students to build a useful spreadsheet that she calls the Music Theory Application. This tool now automatically delivers data on many characteristics of musical keys, including chord notes, resolution direction, Roman numerals, figured bass, and lead sheet symbols. It also contains an automatic note matrix for 12-tone serialism and several music collection tables. Shown here is a figure of the poster the project team made and presented at regional and national conferences in 2023 along with other data about the project. Ms. Schmidt substantially improved the tool with more musical concepts and made the tool user friendly as part of her University of Arizona Franke Honors College Thesis. Her thesis mentor was Dr. Matthew Williams.
