Hi, dkap here. I removed: *T'Mershi Duween‎ - the main theme is in 23/24 [1] because 23/24 is not a time signature, but rather a reference to a polyrhythm of 23 notes played evenly over 24 units of rhythms/beats.

That's right. Now it seems to me that the EIHN (Everything Is Healing Nicely) version begins with something like 3 bars in 23/16 (which I misinterpreted to be 23/24), 3 bars 10/16, 3 bars 23/16, 8 bars 10/16, 4 bars 3/8, 4 bars 10/32. Then comes the combinations as per described by http://www.zappa-analysis.com/counterpoint.htm

What do you think?
