A new way to compose music
Hyperscore sets free musical creativity.
Software that empowers anyone to compose music, invented by highly skilled musicians, designers, and software engineers at the M.I.T. Media Lab.
Compose in just 3 simple steps
Place Notes
Construct a motive by graphically placing teardrops
Draw Pitch
The motive is transposed according to the rules of western musical harmony
Harmonize
Use the harmony line to add regions of tension, suspense, or resolution
Hyperscore is perfect for schools, workshops, and personal use
The single coolest thing to happen to music ever.
— Thomas O’Hara, 12, of West Genesee Middle School
I want to thank you for the wonderful gift you have given the world.
— Roy Corders
The program was an instant hit with all of my middle school students… I was amazed at the interest my students showed.
— Kevin Coyne, a public school music teacher in Waltham, MA
New Harmony Line is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization spun out of the M.I.T. Media Laboratory’s Opera of the Future group. Our vision is to enrich lives by enabling individuals of all ages and backgrounds to engage with music—as active listeners, learners, creators, and connectors. New Harmony Line has licensed Hyperscore technology (previously commercialized by Harmony Line, Inc.) with the goal of further developing and distributing the software for a new generation of music creators.
We seek to partner with individuals and organizations to build and sustain collaborations that promote individuals’ creativity and civic engagement through music.
We are currently designing a new Hyperscore web application
