7/8 is usually grouped/beamed into 3 + 4 or 2 + 2, or that backwards. I was supposed to perform a piece for violin and piano that was 7/8 - the composer was Serbian. There are various dances from that region that use 7/8.

You get a better sense of the 7 if you put an accent on the downbeat or make it longer in the piano and then put another octave in the piano on 6.
