Canons
Diverse Canons on an Eleven-Note Subject
These pieces are inspired by the canons BWV 1087 by J.S. Bach. As with the Bach canons, these pieces can be scored for any instruments.
A canon is a musical piece in which two or more parts are the same, up to some transformation. Inversion means upside down, retrograde means backwards, and retrograde inversion means upside down and backwards. Augmentation means every note is lengthened by the same factor.
