Musical patterns of three against four. Notes are from Holst's Jupiter. Hit "j" to hear a recording of the original. Hit stop then orange button for an example of words 1, 2, 3, with accents every 4th beat (with accent set to 4). You can change the accent bear number.
Hear bars of 4 beats / measure with the 3 pitches in Jupiter, from Holst's the Planets. The notes are E, G, then A. All music from Scratch code. Or press "j" for original version (US Marine Band, public domain) My original version was in 2019 "Musical pattern, 3 against 4, Holst's Jupiter" (when I was new to Scratch) but that had a serious synchronization problem that I now fixed. My interest revived when I heard, at super bowl halftime, a faint 3 against 4 in "turn the tv off". The same pattern is heard in the song "Gary Indiana" but there it uses accents as in: gary indiANa gary INdiana GAry indiana 1 2 3
