Description
Time signatures are an interesting and arguably necessary part of our musical language. They provide the grid against which we place rhythmic values and ideas, letting us know each time "1" comes back around as we count along. They are, at least in part, responsible for the feel of a piece of music.
They each come with expectations — 3/4 is often indicative of something waltz-like, 12/8 usually implies a shuffle, 2/2 a march, and of course, good ol' 4/4 is where many listeners and performers feel most at home. But what about those time signatures that stray from the familiar simple and compound varieties?
In episode 51 of our podcast, Themes and Variation, Carter and Mahea are joined by https://www.joeylefitz.com/ (Joey Lefitz), beloved friend, Soundfly Mentor, and superb drummer to discuss "Odd Time Songs."
