What it sounds like to me is something along the lines of "1 ee and a 2 ee
and a 3 ee and a", which sounds like it would be 16th notes. Here's what I
mean. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BEmcxvSryk. Notice when you listen
carefully, a few notes are missing in this version.

Hi Annabelle
I have seen it written in 3/4 but Saint-Saen originally wrote it in 6/4.
If you want to save time you can download a MusicXML file of this from the
MuseScore website. There is a violin and piano version at:

Hope that helps.

Subject: [sib-access] Notating For Music Box: What Meter Is This?
Hi, it's Annabelle.
I'm trying to notate a version of Camille Saint-Saens' tune, "The Swan".
Specifically, I'm trying to notate it for music box, and I'm wondering, what
time signature should I use. To me, the piece sounds like it's in 3/4 time,
but then again, it could be 6/8, 9/8, or even 12/8. I'm confused on this
one! Does anybody have any pointers?
