Music is frequently used to guide the atmosphere. However, when we play our favorite music, that music is not always suitable for atmosphere of the place. We propose a method to arrange music automatically so that music follows given sensitivity adjective words. We use music files in wave format for practicality and arrange only tempo and pitch for the purpose. This system is based on an experiment that subjects arranged music wave files from ten genres to follow 16 adjectives. Hypothesis tests on a psychological evaluation experiment confirmed that adjustment of tempo and pitch of our system is sufficiently effective to derive sensitivity.
