Mean chord length

Average length of one annotated chord (quarter note = 1).

Formula: mean(duration of chord labels)
How to read it: The beat-based version of harmonic rhythm, so collections in different meters compare more easily. Bach suites 1.16 (fast changes), solo works 1.81, Beethoven sonatas 1.64, Mozart 1.41.
Caveats: Only for annotated corpora (not chorales). Annotation granularity differs slightly between corpora. Beethoven's piano sonatas enter with the 64 of 91 movements that have harmony annotation.

Distribution by collection

One dot per movement. Vertical bar = collection median. Bach's chorales are not shown: no harmony annotation.
