Not about the XML format itself but about the concepts used by the format 
(Segmentations, FrameDivisions, Attributes and Scopes)...
http://clam-project.org/wiki/Manual_Annotator

In short: Attributes are the data holders. They hold a value for each element 
of a given scope (each song, frame, or segment). There is a top level scope 
(Song) and then some special attributes define new scopes (FrameDivisions and 
Segmentations).

You have two xml files:
- description scheme: defines a collection of attributes and their properties: 
type, name, scope, documentation...
- description data: holds the attribute values for a given song.

At the end of the NetworkEditor tutorial there is an explanation of the data 
you can find in that concrete example:

Also Chordata provides an interactive interface for all that:
