Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Morphing has become a general technique in computer graphics. Recently the topic becomes popular as well in the field of sound synthesis. This paper describes application of the morphing technique to a music piece named "Mirror stone" for a flute and a computer. Two examples of morphing are introdued; from a flute to singing voice, and from flute to struck plates. Moreover, a basic framework of morphing technique based on a sinusoidal model is introdued, which framewise interpolates spectral parameters. The algorithm is an extended one of morphing in the case of mono-tone, since it can incorpolate sounds with unvoiced parts, where there are no harmonics.
