Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method, medium, and system for summarizing music. The method includes summarizing a music content by extracting an audio feature value from a compressed segment of music data, tracking change points of the music content using the extracted audio feature value and re-configuring segments, selecting a fixed length fragment from each of the reconfigured segments and clustering the selected fragment so as to measure similarity and redundancy between the respective segments, and generating a summary of the music content using a segment selected based on the measured similarity and redundancy between the respective segments.
