I think I've come across alda and abc notation. I agree melrose seems the most similar to mine. I guess it's an over-generalization saying most software out there is focused on experimentation. I was thinking mostly of Sonic Pi and SuperCollider. I think the main difference in my program is that you'll be defining functions that react to state in the song during the simulation, which can output notes dependent on that state (such as the root of the current chord), instead of concrete notes visible at "compile time".
