Abstract

This paper presents BeatlesFC, a set of harmonic function annotations for Isophonics' The Beatles dataset. Harmonic function annotations characterize chord labels as stable (tonic) or unstable (predominant, dominant). They operate at the level of musical phrases, serving as a link between chord labels and higher-level formal structures.
