The question started with a piece of Liszt. It has to be played adante. Time is set: first part: 9/8 (3/4) second part: 6/8 (2/4) istesso tempo (means that a 1/4 stays 1/4. So the duration of the measure changes). Writing it this way, prevents printing the triplet everywhere. The feel of the

Thank you Hans, The \time #'(4 4 3) 11/8 makes the subdivision, but only shows 11/8. I will use the example from https://myrealbook.vintherine.org/mesures-composees.html > Op 28 jul. 2022, om 23:17 heeft Hans Åberg het volgende > geschreven: > > >> On 28 Jul 2022, at 22:43, Jean Abou
