Multimedia has become incorporated into musical research only very recently, for example, in 1995 and 1998 Les Musicographies (Besson 1995) and Promenades en Musique (Aubert 1998) were published. Each of them proposed a graphic approach towards musical analysis: animations were used to provide a better understanding of the musical notions revealed by analysis.
