This doctoral dissertation proposes and evaluates a computational approach for the automatic description of tonal aspects of music from the analysis of polyphonic audio signals. These algorithms focus on the computation of pitch class distributions descriptors, the estimation of the key of a piece, the visualization of the evolution of its tonal center or the measurement of the similarity between two different musical pieces. This dissertation substantially contributes to the field of computational tonal description: a) It provides a multidisciplinary review of tonal induction systems; b) It defines a set of requirements for low-level tonal features; c) It provides a quantitative and modular evaluation of the proposed methods; d) It contributes to bridge the gap between audio and symbolic-oriented methods without the need of a perfect transcription; e) It extents current literature dealing with classical music to other musical genres; f) It shows the usefulness of tonal descriptors for music similarity; g) It provides an optimized method which is used in a real system for music visualization and retrieval, working with over a million of musical pieces.
