contra jules Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I believe it's in 5/8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I believe it's in 5/8. Yes, 5/8 subdivided as 3+2, except for the middle section that sounds like 4/4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
contra jules Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 yeah, it's 4/4. (I've played it before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I'm pretty sure it's usually conducted in a fast 5/4 pattern (especially in drum corps). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JF_the_Elder Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 It's 5/8 and 6/8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Bennett3rd Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 When we played it in 92, we did it in 5/4 and 4/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 It's 5/8 and 6/8 Where is the 6/8? The 4/4 is the secondary melody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 the ending seems to have been in 6/8. and i do remember Xmen doing the 5/8 stutter step visually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profhill Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 yeah, it's 4/4. (I've played it before) What kind of messed up version have you played? It's clearly in some sort of 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
