Hello performers of all instruments,

Hmmm, first I have problems with my english, so let me define some words:

- Triplets (Three tied notes valuing 2 "ordinary")

- 5lets (5 tied notes valuing 4 "ordinary")

- Etc.

:P

So!

When you have 5lets, 7lets, xlets to play...do you have play them of equal value?

I believe you have to for 5lets... and not for 7lets and shorter but... what notes should be shorter,? Is it up to performer? Will I get stroke by Composer's God if I don't do them straight???

What's your opinion?

Once you get to the higher numbers, it's probably a lot more important that they flow well than to have a high degree of rhythmic precision. The listener's ear isn't really going to be able to tell the difference if septuplets aren't perfectly even.
