Expressive Timing in Bob Dylan's ‘With God on Our Side’

Expressive Timing in Bob Dylan's ‘With God on Our Side’ To analyse the metre of popular song is an act of performance analysis. Without reference to a score, analysts must rely on recordings to determine metre, grouping, and timing fluctuations. When these fluctuations and groupings change (within a performance or between performances) a fixed representation of a song's metre is challenged. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Music Analysis Wiley

Abstract

To analyse the metre of popular song is an act of performance analysis. Without reference to a score, analysts must rely on recordings to determine metre, grouping, and timing fluctuations. When these fluctuations and groupings change (within a performance or between performances) a fixed representation of a song's metre is challenged.
