  Abstract:   I discuss my efforts to build an intelligent musical accompanist. I divide the problem into three basic pieces. The "listening" piece tries to track the score position of the soloist by using a hidden Markov model. The "think" piece tries to combine the information gained from "listening" with data gained from past performances. I do this by estimating parameters for a Kalman filter model and using the "on line" data to predict the soloist's actions. A final piece mediates between these predictions and internal consistency constraints the accompaniment must satisfy. A brief demonstration will follow.
