We decided to use the 5 following songs to underline our provided activities with suitable music
Songs we used:

Song Interpret Genre Situation when it's played
Introduction music "perception" Benjamin Tissot unknown Introduction, played until face is recognized
Summer of '69 Brian Adams Rock, Pop Rock Entertaining while waiting for the caretaker to come
Take Five The Dave Brubeck Quartet Jazz If the activity "going to the living room" is suggested
Escape (The Pina Colada Song) Rupert Holmes Folk, Pop If the activity "have a coffee" is suggested
Tiny Dancer Elton John Folk, Pop If the activity "doing a puzzle" is suggested

The songs were bought and downloaded from amazon music and cut into 10 seconds to 1 minute pieces. Only the introduction music was freely available on the "bensound" webpage [1]. The songs were added to the Choregraphe program in mp3 format.
We found out, that the wav format, which is also compatible with the pepper robot, was too large. The time to compile and run the program took around 1 minute. After we changed all music files into mp3 format, it was much faster (10s loading time).
