This may seem an impossible task - until you realise that the ratio
54:60.75 is the same as 8:9, and 54:47.25 is 8:7. So they're
actually rather simple shifts in tempo.
And should have been notated as such.
In many cases the new 'deciaml' metronome marking is reached by an
accel/rall from the old tempo - how would you notate that?
Look, either there is a proportion or there isn't. If there is, you can
put it in a tempo marking (e.g.: "8:7 faster"), and if there isn't, you
can't put it in a time sig. Throwing in rits. or accels. makes no
difference.
Why do they make no difference? All that I'm talking about is a
transitition from one tempo, to another 9/8ths faster. What is the
problem with that?
