Tobin Chodos mentioned: "That is, the measure is four quarter notes long plus
one triplet eighth note."
Oops. Unless I'm mistaken, 4 + 1 triplet eighth note would be 4 + 1/6, not 4
+ 1/3. My Lilypond code was based on the assumption that you had 4 quarter
notes + 1 triplet quarter note.
Here's the Lilypond code for 4 + 1/6 meter, i.e., 4 quarter notes + 1
triplet eighth note in every measure.
