## Abstract (arXiv)

Musical Metacreation tries to obtain creative behaviors from computers algorithms composing music. In this paper I briefly analyze how this field evolved from algorithmic composition to be focused on the search for creativity, and I point out some issues in pursuing this goal. Finally, I argue that hybridization of algorithms can be a useful direction for research.
