This paper proposes an emotional harmony composition system using a series of predefined rules and interactive genetic algorithm. Two kinds of rules are defined: One is harmony composition rules used for composing harmony and the other is harmony emotion rules which may indicate the mapping between harmonic elements and a specific emotion of either happiness or sadness. Interactive genetic algorithm is applied to incorporate users' subjective perception in the generated harmony. Both subjective and objective experiments are conducted to prove the effectiveness of our approach.
