The irregular 5/4 time signature found here is not often used in educational ensemble music. Then There Were Five is an original piece by Loreta Fin, using a 3 + 2 feel and, at times, a 2 + 3 feel. The syncopated rhythm is repetitive and has a lilting quality. The middle section changes to 3/4 time, before returning to the main ideas. This piece is for Loreta's five grandchildren, who have often been the inspiration for her pieces. (2:25)
