Meter Anthology
Mark Gotham
This is a placeholder chapter for forthcoming lists of moments that are notable for particular metrical techniques.
In the meantime, here is a list (from Gotham 2019) of passages in mixed meters (5s, 7s, ... ). The list is organised chronologically by year of composition and limited to notated music and cases in which a single mixed metrical pattern is sustained for at least four iterations such that it might realistically be internalised by a listener as a meter.
These (imperfect) criteria are intended to define a meaningful boundary for the collection guided by what meter 'is'.
