Oh! This is really cool. I did not know about all the music oriented modules in Perl. That drummer module is especially interesting.

Is this the attempt to do live coding in Perl? There seem to be parallels to e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extempore_(software) (besides the syntax).

Nope. This is not about "live coding." It is just about creating MIDI - live or not. I do reference the modules you can use for real-time operation: MIDI::RtMidi::FFI::Device and MIDI::RtMidi::ScorePlayer :)
