Abstract
This project demonstrated that enough information can be retrieved from MEI, an XML format for musical information representation, to transform it into music notation with good fidelity. The process involved writing an XSLT script to transform files into Mup, an intermediate format, then processing the Mup into PostScript, the de facto page description language for high-quality printing. The results show that the MEI format represents musical information such that it may be retrieved simply, with good recall and precision.
