7 Odd 20th century time signatures (such as \\\"5/8\\\") can often be
8 played as compound time signatures (e.g. \\\"3/8 + 2/8\\\"), which
9 combine two or more inequal metrics. LilyPond can make such music quite
10 easy to read and play, by explicitly printing the compound time
11 signatures and adapting the automatic beaming behavior.
