First session of the annual series (two more sessions are prepared for June and October 2020) presenting new tools and methodologies in digital humanities for early music research. The session was focused on databases of medieval music, encoding of early notations and on optical music recognition. Specialists from main research centers in these fields, University of Waterloo, Dalhousie University and McGill University in Canada presented their research projects on databases of medieval chant “Cantus Index” and “Cantus Database”, “Canadian Chant Database” and “Fragmentarium”, also music and analytical interface SIMSSA and workflows for Optical Music Recognition for neume notation. In an interactive way the attendees (students, scholars, professionnals in musicology and IT) learnt to enter data into chosen databases and to encode neume notations into standards of MEI. The series will continue with a second session (June 2020), which will deepen the knowledge of encoding of old notation systems.
