I would hire a professional musician, rather than believing that
DSP is some sort of holy grail for all tasks in the world.
Hint: many in the real world are just not down with engineers
believing they can replace musicians. It's bad form at minimum...
some would call us scabs. Musicians who can do this are paid
union scale.
Many musicians I have known are also interested in math or physics
or engineering, so I suspect that you wouldn't have such a hard
time finding someone interested in both.
Reminds me, though, of Shazam:
https://www.shazam.com/
Shazam will identify a musical recording given a small sample
of an often noisy version of the source. Not so obvious, it makes
an exact match to the original. That is, it won't just identify
the musical piece but the exact CD that it came from.
They do this by extracting some parts of the signal, certain
frequency ranges, fingerprint those, and then compare them with
saved fingerprints. That is, they have the ability to compress
a musical composition down to a fairly small number of bits,
and match up those bits.
