Compound meter
Creator:
Lucia Swarts, Stephen Stubbs, Teatro Lirico
Description:
From Giuseppe Maria Jacchini's Cello Concerto in F Major, Op. 4, No. 9
Compound meter describes meters in which the beats are subdivided into groups of three rather than two (i.e. 6/8, 9/8, 12/8). Fast compound meters (as in this example) are often evocative of dance.
