Music composing by artificial intelligence, why not ???

Do we need to be able to put our creativity(art) in mathematical model to make a robot that can write symphonies ??? I DON'T THINK SO !!! Let's review what we do when writing a symphony ? We go to art school and Listen to thousands of music symphonies and try and fail many times and at the end we come up with our own symphony. A robot is not necessarily an Iron man walking around and pressing buttons. A robot specified to write symphony can be a code(intelligent system), crawling over all possible music tones & symphonies(available in its database). The code can later use this huge cached database and make combinations of them which are ear-catching and run surveys on test subjects(human subjects or other codes that can detect if a song is tolerable by our ears or not) and find out which of them are best and which to dump(some kind of genetic algorithm type) ...

It sounds crazy but what I am talking about here is not sci-fiction. This is today ...
