LinkedMusic Workshop I: Music Databases

LinkedMusic Workshop I: Music Databases

This workshop is co-organized by CIRMMT Research Axis 2 (Music Information Research).

In this first LinkedMusic Workshop, we will be surveying various major online music databases. One of the main goals of the LinkedMusic Project (linkedmusic.ca) is to interlink many of these databases.

The workshop is free and open to all, but registration is required
