JFugue is ideal for applications in which music is generated at run-time, such as:

• Algorithmic, generative, aleatoric, or evolutionary music
• Music editors, beat boxes, drum machines
• Jazz improvisers, mimicking classical composers, AI in music
• Procedural synthesis, virtual instruments, interactive software playthings
• Dynamic mood setting, adaptive music, music that depends on game state, games that require musical skill
• ...And much more, limited only by your imagination!

Using JFugue is also a great way to inspire future programmers, and to experiment with music theory and composition.
