Hi,

we are dealing with arithmetic, not even with mathematics; 3+3=6, no matter what you can 'feel'. The musical expression comes through the notation, but it is not the notation.

Cheers,

Paolo

criticizing a particular notation without knowing the context, piece or composer is wrong (and silly).

there is no need to subtly slam new complexity composers, this rhythm is hardly complex, and the OP asked how to do it, not if it was "wrong".  further, to discredit an entire practice (one you seem to feel is unifed ["they are wrong"], though this is hardly the case) based on such a simple rhythm, which quite possibly has nothing to do with new complexity, is kind of reactionary.

the context of this rhythmic division (which i also don't know) could very well be explained by looking at surrounding measures or other similar instances in the piece, perhaps reflecting a proportional relation that is important to the proper understanding and performance of the piece.  personally, i would need to start there before at all being able to judge whether *i* feel it is wrong -- in *that* context.

I can't figure that rhythm; how on earth you can write it? two dotted halves makes six quarter, not five. You can find such rhythms in contemporary ('new complexity') composers, but they are wrong (and silly).
