	abstract = {We introduce a statistical model of music that allows for the retrieval of music based upon an audio input. This model uses frequency counts of state transitions to index pieces of music. Several methods of comparing these index values to choose an appropriate match are examined. We describe how this model can serve as the basis for a query-by-humming system. The model is also shown to be robust to several kinds of errors.},
