This document discusses the development of Gandharv, a tool to facilitate collaborative music composition. It introduces Gandharv and its aims, discusses findings from interviews and surveys of music enthusiasts about their needs, and outlines key requirements and features identified. These include the ability to search for composers, launch collaborative sessions, provide feedback, and include effects like scaling and tempo alteration. The document then describes the implementation of features in a prototype and plans for future work, such as tracking member contributions and adding special effects.
