Abstract (EN): This paper considers several distinct mathematical and computational tools, namely complexity, dimensionality-reduction, clustering, and visualization techniques, for characterizing music. Digital representations of musical works of four artists are analyzed by means of distinct indices and visualized using the multidimensional scaling technique. The results are then correlated with the artists' musical production. The patterns found in the data demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach for assessing the complexity of musical information.
