#14.27 "Wing Body Wing"

This is the first post here that I would officially consider funky, mainly because of the way it's written (in an "odd meter", 5/16). Guess what though? It's a 4-bar pattern that repeats in 5/16, so really you can consider all 4 bars together as "20/16", which is really just "5/4" a fairly common meter. I could have written the thing out as a 5/4 bar, but that would have taken up too much time, and that wasn't the direction I was thinking at the time.

Don't be confused by the "nested" (one inside the other) repeat brackets- I'm aware that these aren't a common music notation convention, but it should be pretty self-explanatory that the small repeat applies to the first bar only ("repeat this one bar 3 times") and the large repeat applies to everything ("continuously loop the whole 4-bar phrase").

Whew! Now, to explain the sticking- this is definitely the vaguest I'll ever be with stickings on the actual image that I've written down, so sorry about that, but again, you're smart- likely these words will get you there (if not, contact me/comment/etc.)

#14.27 Sticking

• m1- repeat 3 times starting off the right and alternate hands each repeat (RH... LH.... RH...)
• m2- the first time through, use the marked [L.ll R] sticking on this "turnaround" bar
• when looping the 4 bars back on themselves, you'll have to play the exact opposite stickings ("invert" them)- (m1) LH... RH... LH...  (m2) RH turnaround [R.rr L]
