Abstract: The application of artificial intelligence techniques to help musicologists analyse and classify operatic arias in terms of the sentiment they might be expressing constitutes a novel task that may benefit from the application of sentiment analysis techniques. However, because the analysis of text in this instance aims to provide information to support the analisis of the associated music, the conventions of how narrative is structured in traditional opera need to be taken into account to ensure that the relevant spans of text are considered. The present position paper argues for a treatment of operatic libretti as semi-structured data, to take advantage of annotations on speaker identity and recitative vs. aria distinctions so that the most relevant sentiment for the music of the arias can be mined from the texts. This would constitute a new task that applies artificial intelligence specifically to the needs of musicology.
