Dataset Summary
WikiMusicText (WikiMT) is a new dataset comprising 1010 lead sheets in ABC notation sourced from Wikifonia.org, accompanied by a title, artist, genre, and description. The dataset covers eight genres and is intended for evaluating semantic search and music classification. The data was collected by converting MusicXML sheet music to ABC notation, extracting title and artist names, crawling corresponding Wikipedia entries, assigning genre labels based on the most frequent genre keywords, and summarizing the entries using BART-large. The dataset includes only publicly available music, but users should exercise caution when using it. WikiMT offers a unique resource for music-related natural language processing research, but further investigation is needed to explore potential biases and limitations of the dataset.
