Musical rhythm: Onsets/intervals of seven music corpora

These files contain onset/interval data (in ms) from 7 music corpora covering different musical styles (Western & non-Western), 2 of solo- and 5 of multi-instrument performances. The data are suitable for analyses of rhythm (they include mainly percussion/keyboard instruments with crisp onsets).
File "METHODS4IntervalData_processing of musical corpora.pdf" provides details on how onset data were obtained & how to visualize rhythm with the Matlab code provided in folder "MatlabCode_RhythmVisualization".

Files & data:

1. "IntervalData_CubanSalsa_corpus.mat":
