Recognizing 11/4 Timing in Music

Video Transcript

Hi, I'm Austin McBride here with Expert Village. Today I'm going to show you how to write some music in really awkward, unusual timings, such as, what I'll do, 11/4. This sort of time signature is extremely rare, you don't hear it very often. And when you do hear it, you probably will not have a very good chance of recognizing it. However, writing it can be a new challenge and it's definitely a fun experiment, none the less. Occasionally you'll find really weird timings like this in experimental music, experimental jazz, experimental noise rock, a lot of these sort of experimental forms of music we use, these sort of awkward time signatures. So here's an example, really briefly of how a song written in 11/4 just might sound. So there you go. There's a brief introduction to perhaps some 11/4 awkward timing.
