I would like to contribute to the “songbook of our lives” inquiry through a performance which takes two perspectives on songs. The first of these is from the perspective of an individual who is moved by songs, the second, as a songwriter/researcher/autoethnographer moved to write songs from my research. In the former, I share story fragments that reveal how my life, body, and story has been touched, shaped, and moved by music and lyrics and through narrative fragments trace some of the beginnings of this journey. In the latter, story fragments reveal how song writing has become a way to counter silence, lack of knowing how to respond, and as a way to stand with participants where together we might find a voice of resistance, communion, and transcendence.

This study is motivated by the lack of teacher’s creativity in writing a kid song. A new song evidentially taught to children generally changes merely on the lyric of an existing melody or song. While this activity is carried out repeatedly, it will be boring for children. Therefore, the creativity of teacher is needed in writing a kid song. Accordingly, the atmosphere of music learning could be more enjoyable and attract children’s attention. This study aims to determine the creativity of teacher in writing a kid song based on three categories of creative products; novelty products, resolution products, elaboration and synthesis products. This study used a qualitative approach. The data collection technique carried out by using documentation studies was in the form of kid songs recording from four participant teachers in the RA Songwriting Competition in Bandung Regency. The result of this study shows three points. First, in terms of the novelty aspect, the songs written by the participants were based on their own ideas, instead of the imitations of other people’s works. It could hardly be seen from the specific characteristic of melody, rhythm, and lyric that was different from the existing works. Second, in terms of the resolution aspect, the songs written by the participants could be a solution of the existing problems in accordance with the needs of children. Third, in terms of elaboration and synthesis aspects, the song texts were very communicative, easy to comprehend, and apprehended by the children. As a recommendation, the written songs could be used as a model for delivering learning material in Early Childhood Education

<em>The purpose of writing this article is (1) to examine the meanings that contained in the macapat song (2) to examine the values that found in the macapat song. Value is a benchmark that is considered true and a guide in community life in making a decision. The method that used in writing this article uses the literature study method. From the problems obtained, it can be concluded that there are character values from macapat mijil, kinanthi, dhandanggula, gambuh, durma, pangkur, and pocung. Character value is the quality of depicting human behavior that can be formed through education and the surrounding environment. The character values that can be taken from the macapat songs are loving peace, religious values, educational values, honesty, responsibility, discipline values, and high curiosity. Through macapat songs, students can apply the character values in daily life.</em>

Full textAbstract:
Indonesian culture is very diverse with forms ranging from dance, batik cloth, folklore, folk music and songs, traditional clothing, traditional houses, traditional food and drinks, traditional games, performing arts, rituals and so on. At the writing of this library research, the researcher focused on folk songs that are famous in West Java. The title song is Tokecang. The thing related to this song is that a simple song sung by children has a deep meaning. In this literature review, researchers associate Tokecang songs with the formation of children's characters. The formation of children's characters in the Tokecang song teaches that we, as social beings, must have an attitude of affection and social care. Affection is an emotional reaction to a person, animal, or object.

Abstract: The song is a work favored by all humans in the world. Songs can be enjoyed by allpeople, including teenagers who are still active in school. Because it is related to imagination,songs can certainly be a good medium when applied in the learning process in the classroom,especially in writing short stories. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effectiveness of songmedia in stimulating the ability to write short stories in students. This research is a quantitativeresearch with Cluster Sampling method (group sample). This study used a posttest-only controlgroup design, with the two groups: experimental class and control class which only final testresults were taken (post test). The population in this study were students at one of the junior highschools in Jakarta, Indonesia (51 students). 25 students were positioned as the control class and 26students as the experimental class. The results showed that the ability to write short stories throughsong media was effective in stimulating the ability to write short stories. This is based on theresults of the t-test, found t-count=2.73 and t-table = 2.01. Because t-count is greater than t-table,then Ho is rejected, it can be concluded that the average learning outcomes of writing short storiesthat use song media are higher than the average learning outcomes of writing short stories that donot use song media.Key Words: Song Lyrics, Short Stories, Writing, Junior High School.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article argues for understanding popular songs and songwriting through the metaphor of architecture, an idea we draw from vernacular terms used by songwriters when comprehending and explaining their own creative practice, and which we deploy in response to those who have called for writing about music to use a non-technical vocabulary and make greater use of metaphor. By architecture we mean those recognisable characteristics of songs that exist as enduring qualities regardless of a specific performance, recording or sheet music score. We use this analogy not as a systematic model, but as a device for exploring the intricate ways in which words and music are combined and pointing to similarities in the composition of poetry and the writing of song lyrics. The art of repetition and play with ambiguity are integral to popular song architectures that endure regardless of the modifications introduced by performers who temporarily inhabit a particular song.

Full textAbstract:
Born at Bridlington in 1136, William of Newburgh was educated at Newburgh, an Augustinian priory a few miles north of York, where he became a canon. William probably lived at Newburgh for the rest of his life, for the only instance of him travelling outside Yorkshire is one visit he paid to Fínchale. He died between summer 1199 and autumn 1201, leaving three extant writings. This outline of his life is based on John Gorman’s introduction to the only writing by William which has received a modern critical edition, his commentary on the Song of Songs. William’s other writings are sermons, and the Historia rerum Anglicarum (hereafter History). Yorkshire Cistercian patronage envelopes two of the works. The commentary on the Song of Songs is dedicated to Roger, Abbot of Byland, while the History is prefaced by a dedicatory letter to Ernald, Abbot of Rievaulx (1189-99), which states that Ernald had requested the work.

Full textAbstract:
The article focuses on Eugeniusz Tkaczyszyn-Dycki’s songs, that is poems containing the word „song” in the title (e.g. „Song for Ms. Mościcka”). Although they are called „songs”, they are not intended to be performed orally; instead, they explore the musical potencial of their form for strictly textual purposes. The discussion follows Magdalena Łopata’s typology of Tkaczyszyn-Dycki’s songs, which refl ects the poet’s own differentiation between „somebody’s” songs, songs „about something”, „some” songs and songs „for somebody”. Subsequently, the article problematizes Tomasz Majeran’s conception of the refrainity” of Tkaczyszyn-Dycki’s poems. The Lacanian theory of trauma and tuché helps explain this particular aspect of Tkaczyszyn-Dycki’s poetic writing.

Full textAbstract:
In this interview, Welsh guitarist, composer, producer and songwriter, Stephen Wheel discusses his reasons for writing songs, his approach to songwriting and his compulsion to make music. He talks about occupying the intersecting roles of producer, writer, engineer and performer, and the integrity of performances to a completed song. He writes for himself, being instigator and arbiter of the creative process. He describes how some songs are easier to finish than others, as he strives to complete each song on its terms. Melodies and lyrics have often been the most elusive elements of songwriting for Wheel, but he explains how the various components of song creation emerge and converge with particular songs and different projects. Wheel works with the larger canvas of the album, conceptualizing the songwriting process as both driving and serving successive album concepts.

Full textAbstract:
Song is a literary work that is enjoyed by all people, from young people to adults. In the song lyrics, there are many language styles, especially metaphorical styles. Metaphorical language style is an implicit comparative language style. One of the functions of using metaphors in writing song lyrics is to add beauty to the lyrics. Japanese songs are one of the most popular songs by Japanese students or learners, anime enthusiasts and the general public. LiSA is one of the popular Japanese singers whose songs are widely enjoyed. In this study, researchers analyzed the metaphorical language style of LiSA's song lyrics. This study aims to determine the types and meanings of metaphors in LiSA's song lyrics. This type of research is qualitative research with descriptive methods. The data in this study are in the form of phrases containing metaphors in the lyrics of LiSA's songs. The source of the data taken is the lyrics of a song by LiSA which is an anime soundtrack consisting of 8 songs including Adamas, Catch the Moment, Datte Atashi no Hero, Gurenge, Rally Go Round, Rising Hope, Shirushi, and Unlasting. This study uses the theory of Stephen Ullmann. Based on the results of the study, there were 4 types of metaphors, namely anthropomorphic metaphors with 9 data, synesthetic metaphors with 9 data, abstract metaphors with 22 data, and animal metaphors with 2 data. Besides that, there are different meanings in each metaphorical expression.

A recent special issue of Qualitative Inquiry (December 2016) throws a welcome spotlight on the place of songs within qualitative research. In this essay, I share a story that contributes to the gathering conversation around music and songs as a (perhaps unique) form of qualitative inquiry. My contribution focuses specifically on song writing as a form of research, which has received limited attention to date within the qualitative inquiry literature. The story is inspired by recent explorations of songwriting as reflexive practice, and I share it with the aim of expanding understanding and inviting further dialogue on the processes of writing (songs as) qualitative research.

Full textAbstract:
In his songs from 1865–1882, Dvořák used poems by Czech authors Adolf Heyduk, Eliška Krásnohorská, Karel Jaromír Erben, Serbian folk songs translated by Siegfried Kapper (Czech-German author), Vítězslav Hálek and poems from the Dvůr Králové Manuscript. Most of the texts were probably obtained through Jan Ludevít Procházka, the important figure of Czech cultural life, who initiated Czech song writing for the concerts he organised in Prague. Some of Dvořák’s songs and cycles have survived in fragmentary form (Rozmarýna, s. op. and Like the Moon in the Heavens, No. 12 from Evening Songs, s. op.), some in the two different versions (the song Bouquet from Songs on Words from the Dvůr Králové Manuscript, op. 7). For the purposes of the Simrock edition, the composer arranged the song for the mezzo-soprano Amalie Joachim. Shortly after Dvořák’s establishment of cooperation with the Berlin publisher Simrock, this important publisher released Songs on the Words of Serbian Folk Poetry and four of the Songs on the words from the Dvůr Králové Manuscript. The singer Joachim supported the publishing of these editions, which were also dedicated to her by Dvořák.

Climate change science is unequivocal on the link between fossil fuels and climate change. Yet, some governments – including those in Australia – fail to meet agreed targets and continue to invest in the coal industry. Scientists and other scholars have expressed concern that the science is not prompting shifts in policy adequate to address current and future effects of climate change. Many have called for other tools – specifically, the arts and social sciences – to investigate and communicate about the environmental and social changes underway. In this context, this article explores the potential of interdisciplinary collaborative song-writing as research practice. Beginning on a boat on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, the research team adopted singing and song-writing as a method for coming together to reflect upon our research aims and motivations, to explore and express the delight and grief we were experiencing in this climate-changing land and seascape and potentially to reach new audiences and create different affects. Our multidisciplinary expertise offered impetus to pursue a hybrid form: an original song written, professionally recorded and vinyl pressed; scholarly notes to expand on our song lyrics; visual presentation of our music as annotated score; and written reflections on the process and its contribution to knowledge. Here, we present and explore the possibilities of song-writing as creative geographical practice.

Summary The so-called “Museum” Slavonic translation of the Song of Songs contains a specific recension enrooted in Jewish Second Temple traditions. It becomes more plausible that the Slavonic translation has been produced in the earliest period of Slavic writing directly from Syriac rather than from Hebrew, as it was proposed earlier.

Full textAbstract:
With music consumption being increasingly prominent in everyday modern life, it has become critical to examine the impact of music on the performance of cognitive tasks. Despite preexisting academic literature on the correlation between music and memorization, test-taking ability, and executive planning, conclusions from past studies regarding these cognitive tasks may not be directly applicable to writing, leaving the effects of music on writing tasks a relatively unexplored territory. Given the prevalence of music in the 21st century among all age groups, the current study explores the effects of induced mood (happy versus sad) and language (native versus foreign) of popular songs on writing productivity, measured by number of words written in a set time period. Participants in the experiment were randomly separated into four conditions based on the language and mood of songs, and each given two argumentative writing prompts to complete while listening to the songs assigned to them. Results revealed that the induced mood of the songs significantly affected the writing productivity, with participants listening to sad music producing word counts that are significantly higher than those given happy songs. No effects, however, were found for the language of the music’s lyrical content, suggesting that the language of a song has no significant impact on writing productivity.

Distant Voices is an ongoing, interdisciplinary collaborative action research project, drawing on criminology, community development, politics, practice-led research and songwriting to explore crime, punishment and reintegration through creative conversations that aim to challenge and unsettle understandings of and approaches to rehabilitation and reintegration. In this paper, we discuss some of the thinking behind the project and we reflect on our experiences to date as a community of enquiry. Specifically, we explore the extent to which certain practices of hospitality that we have experienced in processes of collaborative songwriting and song-sharing might mediate and resist the ‘hostile environment’ that faces people leaving prison in many contemporary societies. Drawing on our experience, we argue that hospitality is often disruptive; that creating and sustaining hospitable environments is extremely challenging; and that to do so requires careful thought and planning, including in relation to problems created by the power dynamics intrinsic to criminal justice. The paper includes links to and discussion of one song written in the project – ‘An Open Door’ -- which engages with and illustrates these themes.

The focus of this research is to find the usage of the transitivity processes in Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics. This research is descriptive qualitative research. This research aims to discover and examine types of the transitivity processes used in Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics. The source data of this research are the twenty selected song lyrics of Bon Jovi. Meanwhile, the data of this research are the clauses that used transitivity processes in Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics. The data of this research are analyzed by using the interactive model. The result of this research shows that all of the six types of transitivity processes are found in Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics, namely: material processes, mental processes, relational processes, verbal processes, behavioral processes, existential processes. It shows that Bon Jovi, in realizing the song, applied the six types of transitivity processes. From the six types of transitivity processes that are found, the material process is dominantly used in Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics. It indicates that Bon Jovi’s selected song lyrics are related to the physical activity that happens in the social phenomena. It is helpful for the readers to know transitivity processes in understanding the message of the song. Besides it, it also gives advantages for the songwriter in writing song lyrics to provide the varieties of wording in the songs.

Full textAbstract:
A favorite project of scholars in late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century France was to collect folk songs from various French provinces and to add new harmonic accompaniments before publishing them. This folk-song project, like so many others, has obvious nationalist undertones: gathering songs from every French province and celebrating an essential and enduring French spirit. Yet the nuances of this project and its broader context suggest a diverse set of concerns. An examination of the rhetoric around folk-song collection shows how French scholars of the period conflated history and geography: they made the provinces the place of history. Collecting songs from the provinces thus became a way of recovering France's past. Paired with contemporary discussions of musical progress and especially those related to harmony, the addition of piano accompaniments to monophonic songs now reads as a form of history writing. In this article, I argue that French music scholars of the fin de siècle acted out their preferred narratives of music history through folk-song harmonizations. What seemed like a unanimously motivated nationalist project actually reveals the development and contestation of the discipline of music history.

<p>Vocabulary is one of the English elements besides grammar, spelling, and pronunciation supporting English language skill such as listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Vocabulary is the first element that should be master before the learners going to other element. When the learners have mastered vocabulary, they will be able to produce many sentences in spoken and written form easily. On the other hand, when they lack of vocabulary, they will find difficulty in deliver their thought, even their opinion to other people. One of the teaching strategies to enhance students’ vocabulary is using English Song. This paper aims at describing the use of English song in teaching English vocabulary for students. The method of this research was a qualitative research combination of seven several journals from abroad and within the country about teaching vocabulary with song. Although there are many reasons why songs can be considered a valuable teaching tool, there are some issues to consider.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Best known for his reminiscences of artistic and intellectual life in midcentury Paris and for his chronicle of the 1931 Dakar-Djibouti mission, L’Afrique fantôme (1934), Michel Leiris also wrote obsessively about music, turning to imperfectly recalled fragments of song and opera to evoke key moments of early childhood and to explore affective relationships. This article focuses on two episodes from Leiris’s writings to demonstrate that his highly emotional and anecdotal mode of writing about music anticipates, and quite possibly influenced, the more systematic theories of voice, sound, and language of Roland Barthes and Jacques Derrida. Derrida engaged directly with Leiris in his essay “Tympan” (in The Margins of Philosophy), which quotes at length a text by Leiris on the cognitive and relational dimensions of hearing and writing. Leiris’s experience in the 1930s and 40s developing a lexicon and grammar for the ritual language of the Dogon people of Mali, I argue, fundamentally shaped his conviction that both music and language are most communicative when they permeate and destabilize each other.

This Fieldwork Playlist emerges from a conference of the same name at Goldsmiths back in 2013. The idea was a simple one: “For our fieldwork playlist, each contributor will pick one song and recount the story of how that song came to hold significance in relation to their research encounters and experience” (Fieldwork Playlist Call For Papers 2013). Each of the papers here explores the evocative nature of music in relation to the experience of social science fieldwork. Each author has selected a song as a starting point to consider their experience in the field. Music is woven into the fabric of the social world of the field, our location in it, our collection and interpretation of data and the writing up process. This edited collection brings together diverse experiences and reflections through the evocative medium of particular songs.

Analisis data dilakukan secara deskriptif guna menganalisa isi lagu dari kedua album tersebut. Dari hasil kajian, banyak lirik menggambarkan kisah sejarah korban penyitas tahun 1965 dari sudut pandang perempuan sebagai tahanan politik. Pengungkapan harapan para perempuan dan usaha memperbaiki citra buruk perempuan bentukan propaganda Orde baru sebagai perempuan brutal dan dikaitkan dengan Partai Komunis Indonesia (PKI). Lirik lagu ini juga mengungkapkan buah pikir dan suara hati perempuan melalui tulisan sebagai bentuk perlawanan baru yang dapat dilakukan oleh perempuan. Lagu-lagu itu membantu perempuan bertahan di masa-masa sulit di era tersebut. Meskipun lirik lagu membahas tentang perempuan, tokoh laki-laki tetap dihadirkan namun masih dari sudut pandang perempuan. The forms of women’s resistance through writing in Dunia Milik Kita and Salam Harapan albumsThis study aimed to describe the form of women’s resistance implied in the lyrics of the Dialita choir song. The research data were in the form of lingual units in words, phrases, clauses in song texts. The data sources are songs from the album of the Dialita Choir entitled “Dunia Milik Kita” (10 songs) and “Salam Harapan” (12 songs). The contents of the songs from the two albums were then analyzed descriptively. From the study, most of the lyrics describe the historical story of 1965 survivors from the perspective of women as political prisoners. They express women’s hopes and efforts to improve the wrong image of women formed by the New Order propaganda as brutal women and associated with the Indonesian Communist Party. The lyrics of this song also express the thoughts and voices of women’s hearts through writing as a new form of resistance that women can do. The songs helped women survive through difficult times of the era. Even though the song lyrics talk about women, the male characters are still presented from a woman’s point of view.

Full textAbstract:
Ruth Crawford Seeger (1901–1953), an American experimental composer active in the 1920s and 1930s, devoted the second half of her career to transcribing, arranging, performing, teaching, and writing about American folk music. Many works from Crawford Seeger's collections for children, including “Nineteen American Folk Songs” and “American Folk Songs for Children,” are widely sung and recorded, but her monumental efforts to publish them often remain unacknowledged. This article underscores the link between her work in American traditional music and Bruce Springsteen's best-selling 2006 album “We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions” in order to give Crawford Seeger due credit for her contributions. By examining her prose writings and song settings, this article illuminates aspects of her thinking about American traditional music and elements of her unusual and striking arrangements, which were deeply informed by her modernist ear.

The article is an overview of Sami literature, past and present, with a specific emphasis on the connection between tradition and innovation, in which literature is regarded in a broader sense than only limited to the written word. Thus the relationship between the traditional epic yoik songs and contemporary poetry is being dealt with, as is the multimedia approach that several Sami artists have chosen for their creative expression. It is almost more the rule than an exemption that Sami artists express themselves through the use of more than only one medium. Through the introduction to Sami literature, the reader also gets acquainted with the history and the culture of the Sami, who are the indigenous people of the northern regions of Scandinavia, Finland and the Kola peninsula in Russia.

Full textAbstract:
The ancient history and culture of the inhabited tribes of Tuva attracted the attention of travelers, linguists, ethnographers, and musicians, especially in recent decades. The primary recordings of yrlar (tuvan songs) and kozhamyk (ditties) in the writing sources of scientists contained samples of ancient musical poetry, including one-thousand-year history images, plots, motifs, and archaic vocabulary. Owing to ethnocultural values and beliefs of Tuvan people in Southern-Central Siberia it preserved features of relict cultures in music traditions. Based on field works conducted in the late 20th century, via ethnographic, historical, and typological principles of systematic approaches to folklore music genres, all songs were divided into occasional rituals and non-occasional songs, according to musical stylistic characteristics folk songs were classified into long songs ʽuzun yrlarʼ, short songs ʽkyska yrlarʼ and traditional ditties ʽkozhamykʼ. Tuvan culture is rich with musical traditions, it includes various song types, melodic recitations, instrumental creativity, calendar, and ritual songs, epic genres, etc. The author considers the development of song art as the most mobile layer, which absorbs all from the surrounding sound world. Songwriting reflects the spiritual experience and national character of the Tuvan ethnos.

Full textAbstract:
Lullaby songs and threnodic songs are indispensable in the lives of men. Threnodic songs are also found as oral literature. Threnodics are songs that are sung after a person's death by his mother, wife, daughter, and other relatives, with a long tone to express the feeling of sadness, by telling about the nature and habits of the deceased. The theme of the song is the lifestyle of the deceased, the habits, the ability to speak, the physical appearance, and the relationship between the deceased and the singer. In this, the smallest of the sentences are found along with the rhyme and alliteration. These are often sung to the sound of a musical cry. Since it is an expression of emotions without any rhythm or meter, there are unique characteristics of the song, such as ups and downs, storytelling, intermittent crying, and singing of the three periods together, viz., vilampa kaalam (pacifying tune), thuritha kaalam (fast tune), and mathiya kaalam (medium tune). This is known as Pilakanam (lamentation), Kaiyarunilai (helplessness), Pulambal (wailing), and Irankarpaa (elegy). How to live is the grammar of a lullaby. But the grammar of the threnodic song is that it sings about the lifestyle of the deceased. In the house of death, the threnodic songs are formed by the expression of emotions and the mental status of those who have lost their relationships. These are new, different from person to person, according to their imagination, and correspond to the relationship between the dead and the singer. Field studies showed that a threnodic song is an expression of emotions that come without any restrictions. The purpose of writing this paper was to find out and document the fact that the threnodic songs sung in Batticaloa are characterized by the expression and uniqueness of emotions, along with many musical traditions.

Full textAbstract:
The song-writing has taken a special place in the system of musical genres of the Ukrainian culture (it is about the 1920s – 1930s). It has been directed to the call of the period, namely to popularize revolutionary ideas, to glorify the struggle for new values of the commune life. Mobility, democratization of content, conciseness and specificity of expression, a clear rhythmic basis, proximity to folklore sources have become the main prerequisites. Such dynamics of the genre development is quite natural as the song is one of the most widespread art forms in the vocal music of all nations of the world. Its advantages include a small form (the so-called miniature), a synthesis of two artistic principles – poetic (verbal / the lyrics) and musical (the melody first of all). The song has sustained various genre changes both in folklore and in the professional field over its centuries-long history. A new ideologically marked genre, known as mass song, with its age gradations (Pioneer, Komsomol, etc.) is presented in the former USSR in the middle of the 1920s. Its first examples appear as fundamental continuation of the songs of Ukrainian, Russian and world revolutionary proletariats. The concept of mass (mass genres, mass songs, etc.), introduced in the 1922 yet, has become a manifestation of cultural ideologies of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) of the USSR, who understand the conception mass as a quantitative indicator of the people concentration (although it is well-known that this term belongs to physical science, the concept biomass is more correct for the society). Thus, the symbols of spiritual origin in the works are rejected (almost for a century). The new themes for the development of mass songs have appeared in the 1930s. The militaristic content is intensified in them on the one hand and the style of the panegyric with the glorification of the cult of the leader personality on the other. The evolution of song-writing in the pre-war Ukraine could has been richer in creative discoveries if it had taken place naturally through the spiritual succession of artistic generations. However, Stalin’s repressions have caused great damage to culture, as well as to all spheres of life. Well-known Ukrainian composers and poets have fallen a prey to them.

Full textAbstract:
Automatic song writing aims to compose a song (lyric and/or melody) by machine, which is an interesting topic in both academia and industry. In automatic song writing, lyric-to-melody generation and melody-to-lyric generation are two important tasks, both of which usually suffer from the following challenges: 1) the paired lyric and melody data are limited, which affects the generation quality of the two tasks, considering a lot of paired training data are needed due to the weak correlation between lyric and melody; 2) Strict alignments are required between lyric and melody, which relies on specific alignment modeling. In this paper, we propose SongMASS to address the above challenges, which leverages masked sequence to sequence (MASS) pre-training and attention based alignment modeling for lyric-to-melody and melody-to-lyric generation. Specifically, 1) we extend the original sentence-level MASS pre-training to song level to better capture long contextual information in music, and use a separate encoder and decoder for each modality (lyric or melody); 2) we leverage sentence-level attention mask and token-level attention constraint during training to enhance the alignment between lyric and melody. During inference, we use a dynamic programming strategy to obtain the alignment between each word/syllable in lyric and note in melody. We pre-train SongMASS on unpaired lyric and melody datasets, and both objective and subjective evaluations demonstrate that SongMASS generates lyric and melody with significantly better quality than the baseline method.
