While I cannot speak for what Ogg meant, the Brubeck piece is the one I am
familiar with, and it is in 5/4 time.

There is a piano part that, IIRC, plays throughout most of the piece, as
there is on most of the songs from that album.  To the casual listener,
Take Five on piano would be difficult but also probably a lot of fun if you
have those skills.

I tried my hand at both over time... was never very good at either!  :D
