Re music retrieval:
The simple answer is to use the same tools musicians use. (This is
comparable to saying "using the same tools native lonaguage speakers
use").
That means all info should be in a notation format available and
searchable to all comers (does html ring a bell??). Ghost writer is one
such for music; Finale exists in different platforms. MIDI is a simple
access (either musical or in data bits) and has the advantage that --
given the easily accessible software -- any file can be translated into
MIDI transportable format.
