“…One chord contains three pitches. For example, the baseline C Major chord is [1,5,8], and the frequency is [ω 1 , ω 5 , ω 8 ] = [261.63, 329.63, 392.00]. But since the ω n acts in the baseline octave, the chord transformation in other tones should be transposed into C tones before correlation function calculation.…”

It is well understood that the creative processes behind art forms, including music, are highly subjective and are based on personal interpretation. This raises the question: can music be effectively integrated into the teaching of more objective subjects, such as chemistry, if done through a systematic and structured framework? In this work, we rationally constructed the mapping between small molecules and chords. We found a strong correlation between the molecular stability and the music type from the interpretation of chemical bonding pictures. This correlation helps students understand the beauty and artistry of chemistry and chords in music. Furthermore, we observed some small imperfections in the molecule mappings of certain real-world chord progressions, which present opportunities for refinement through optimization of the underlying molecular cohesive energy. We demonstrated that the basic chemical bonding picture could provide objective understanding or even standards for music composing. Most small-molecule structures, such as amino acids, can be objectively transformed into reasonable chord combinations, and some real-world music chords exist in these molecular chords. Therefore, students can “play” the molecules using real instruments, and this method is practicable in organic chemistry education.

“…What is the science of music, is there any chemical way to explain and generate music, and is it possible to teach chemistry through music theory? Svozil et al 8 tried a quantum perception using basis vectors to represent pitches and tones. In the chemistry region, one of the attempts is the spectrum.…”

“…A few scholars have proposed the use of quantum terminology to express musical concepts. A notable work on this front was developed by Volkmar Putz and Karl Svozil: they proposed a theory of music based on quantum mechanical concepts of superposition and entanglement [96]. A more recent initiative suggested combining principles of quantum computing with musical harmony [30].…”

Quantum computing technology is developing at a fast pace. The impact of quantum computing on the music industry is inevitable. This paper maps the emerging field of Quantum Computer Music. Quantum Computer Music investigates, and develops applications and methods to process music using quantum computing technology. The paper begins by contextualising the field. Then, it discusses significant examples of various approaches developed to date to leverage quantum computing to learn, process and generate music. The methods discussed range from rendering music using data from physical quantum mechanical systems and quantum mechanical simulations to computational quantum algorithms to generate music, including quantum AI. The ambition to develop techniques to encode audio quantumly for making sound synthesisers and audio signal processing systems is also discussed.
