heartbreaker beautiful song, has been my anthem for a couple years now; wish they would play it live, I've waited and waited

Henry Chloé

Magnifique (:

Cameron Keys

they probably don't perform this anymore because Pavement is actually getting back together! Her prayers were answered, the song served its purpose...

yeah you're right, 2 over 3 is just as much of a polyrhythm as 5 over 4, I was just being a condescending asshole. sorry ; ) I agree with you, like the difference between a B7b13(no 5) chord and a B7+, they imply different scales to the reader, however they will sound exactly the same way. They are just subtle hints as to how the composer meant the piece to be interpreted, however can be interpreted either way. so I agree, to a beginners point of view, they can be viewed as the same thing.

Well, we will just continue to disagree, so there is no point in going further. Also, 2 against 3 and 3 against 4 are still polyrhythms, though they may not be quite as complex as 5 against 4. And just because it SOUNDS the same doesn't make it the same. Personally, I'd prefer to have my part written in the same time signature, so I know how it will feel in context, instead of having to first hear it. Personally, the syncopation that polyrhythms cause doesn't bother me in reading. Oh well.

to further my point, when the composer of this song decided they wanted a flute to play the polyrhythm on this song and they got a flute player and they had to write out a chart for her, how do you think they notated it? it would be incredibly hard to read when the whole passage is written as a polyrhythm, as opposed to writing her out a chart as a simple normal rhythm. furthering my point that either way you write it sounds the same, therefore making it the same thing.

I have a bachelors in music from berklee college of music, thats how much I know about music. It would impractical to NOTATE it that way, although you do see it, particularly in modern classical music. As in your example (which is hardly a poly rhythm, try 5 over 4): you could notate one instrument as 12/8 and one as 4/4... You can notate it either way. therefore making it, (to the ear and therefor for all purposes) the exact same thing.

jerry101988

A polyrhythm generally SOUNDS like you're hearing people play in two different time signatures, but very very rarely is that the case, since that makes music very difficult for a group to follow and still stay together. I don't know how much you know about music, but an example of polyrhythms would be playing triplets agains eighth notes, causing a 2-against-3 feel, or triplets against sixteenth notes, causing 3-against-4. It's just impractical for it to occur in two different time signatures.

@jerry101988 wait so what is a polyrhythm?

jerry101988

It doesn't mean the same thing as playing in a different time signature. Playing in a different time signature can cause polyrhythms, but you can also have them within the same time signature.

Aaron Chase

the piano and strings are playing polyrhythms, however that term means the same thing as playing in a different time signature than the other instruments. @magic585 you are right! and when that happens they are called polyrhythms
