[MEI-L] Music21 MEI support

[Andrew Hankinson, Mr]

Hi all,

I've started writing a module to support MEI in Music21, a new music analysis package for Python from some folks at MIT. It's still at a very preliminary stage, but it will parse a couple of example MEI files, including the Bach Toccata & Fugue BWV 565 example (a fairly complex example).

There's a long ways to go before it's fully implemented, but I thought I'd send it around to gauge interest and get feedback. You can find the code for it here:

http://github.com/ahankinson/music21-mei

If you're interested in using it, please read the README for more information on what it currently can and cannot do.

If you don't know Music21, you can find out more about it here: http://mit.edu/music21/

Any feedback, or even just "Hey, that's great! I can use this" messages would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
-Andrew
