If you use Markov chains for music, be sure to also look into hidden Markov models (HMMs) and hierarchical HMMs (HHMMs). You'll find some intense math if you look them up, but that math is for people trying to infer the models from empirical data. If you set the parameters manually then HMMs and HHMMs are very simple to implement and have good musical potential.
