This paper discusses the potential of musical corpus studies, taking research on common-practice tonal harmony as a case in point. Based on a brief depiction of a project carried out at the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and two novel datasets of harmonic analyses of music in the classical style, we elaborate on research questions, applications, and the need of extending the annotation standard used.
