Hi all,

Is there a standard/convention/best practice on measure numbering in polymetric 
scores? I’m running into an issue of that myself (in my song “The Country 
Wife”), and can’t find anything definitive.

Note: Gould (p. 484) writes, “Bar numbers should not be used in music in which 
individual performers have different numbers of bars or where barlines do not 
coincide”… but I’d like to at least have a non-recommended alternative.

Thanks,
Kieren.
