2. Canon
The canon is a musical compositional technique that, like the fugue, is one of the techniques used in the writing of polyphonic music, as well as an imitative technique that utilizes counterpoint. The term canon also refers to musical compositions written in this technique, such as Bach's Five Canonic Variations.
All the voices in a canon imitate a single voice, but voices of different heights enter at certain intervals, creating a continuous effect of rising and falling, and a kind of canon is also sung in rounds. In a canon, the first melody to appear is the introductory phrase, and the subsequent imitations are the responsive phrases.
Based on the interval difference between the heights of the voices, it can be divided into the same degree of canon, five degrees of canon, four degrees of canon, etc.; based on the length of the interval, it can be divided into one bar canon, two bars canon, etc.; in addition, there are also accompanied by a canon, transposed canon, retrograde canon, reverse canon, and other various techniques.

The most familiar canon today is Johann Pachelbel's Canon and Gigue in D major, also known as Pachelbel's Canon.
The piece is generally performed with the cello opening and the three violins joining in eight beats apart. The violins all play the same melody, and there are only three different melodies before and after, each with only two bars for repetition; the cellos play only two bars from beginning to end, repeating the melody twenty-eight times. Although this music is constantly circling back and forth, the beauty of the melody is not monotonous, but rather melodic and pleasing to the ear.
The song is well known for being the soundtrack to the movie "Mere Mortals".
An adapted version of the song, Variations on the Canon by Pachelbel, from George Winston's album December, was used in the Korean movie My Sassy Girl, making it even more popular. all the rage.
