  • Velato is an esoteric programming language that uses music as its source code.
  • The first note of a composition sets a 'command root' note, and subsequent intervals specify instructions.
  • The command root can be changed between statements, and chords can be interpreted in a specified order to make the composition sound musical.
  • An example program in Velato outputs 'Hello, World'.
  • Other musical programming languages include Fugue, VenetianScript, and Yet Another Musical Esolang.
