I just heard incidental music in 11/8 in an episode of "Dora The Explorer". |
|
I thought I was hearing things as first, but after really listening for a few seconds, I heard the 3+3+3+2 pattern. Very unexpected.

1. I was just talking about that with my son |
|
Well, not really. As far as I know, 11/8 was a month ago, and that's all I can tell you.
Nifty observation, though.

2. Pretty unexpected for most music, except for few artitsts. |
|
Genesis, Sting, and composer Gustav Holst have my favorite weird time signatures.

3. You sure it wasn't written in seperate measures? |
|
I could see a regular changover every four measures to make a particular line fit. :shrug:

Maybe I'll find the name of the person(s) who writes the music for the show and e-mail them to ask if I'm right. :)

7. Was it "Whippin' Post"? Or perhaps Don Ellis' "Upstart" in 3 2/3 quarter time? |

I doubt I could do 11/8. Wow.
