I am going to spend a small amount of time teaching my actors about 5/4 time, but I despair that there simply cannot be a folk song or a public domain song of any kind that is in 5/4 time. Any thoughts?
I would think your best bet with odd-meter folk songs would be to look for something from Eastern Europe -- but of course there you are running into language issues as well. But if public domain isn't critical, since you're dealing with actors, probably the most familiar and accessible 5/4 song from musical theatre is "Everything's Alright" from Jesus Christ Superstar.
