Talk:12/8

Comment
The article should mention how 12/8 compares to 6/4.

12/8
As a trained and educated musician, this is the most absurd thing I have ever heard- this is mathematical, musical minutiamaximus at it's absolute worst. Whomever "wrote" or "inserted" this nonsense is picking gnat sh-t out of pepper, with a shovel; on which all this nonsense belongs on. In AYNIL, the phrasing of the ("All you need is Love) chorus comprises eight beats spread over two measures of 4/4; 1 measure with five notes of lyrical melody, 1 measure of 4/4 with five notes of musical melody in the horn response over three measures (12 beats) of its four measure length- but the fourth measure of the chorus is in 6/4. Or is the last measure of that fabulous and ever-singable chorus is in 3/2, 1/2-3, or perhaps 18/12 or even 36/24 or better still, 1.0/.666 ad-infinte- and/or nause-um. Where's the friggin' 12??Dcrasno (talk) 07:34, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

12/8 with variable stress
Any known pieces in 12/8 grouped as 3+3+2+2+2 (order irrelevant; 2+2+2+3+3 or even 2+3+2+3+2 or any group of 2's and 3's that adds to 12) that have been written?? Georgia guy (talk) 23:51, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
