AlphaGo has convolutional neural network, supervised learning, self-generated supervised learning, a mix-up strategy between Monte Carlo rollouts and goal function estimation.
All these strategies are apted to go because it is a spatial game with a very well defined strategy function.
While I do see CNN and supervised learning well worth of being used for music, it is much more difficult to come up with something that resembles the third step in AlphaGo: generating millions of random 'games' (simphonies) with their own label (good music/bad music) to train an 'intuitive' network.
A spotify like service could be used to label the quality.
Alternatively it would also be nice to have music that's trained for specific goals like helping people concentrate while they work or reducing stress.
