Short Canon in C Major : by Koerber

francis

Got a new teeny tiny keyboard today. Went to try it out and played this melody into Sib. Once I staggered it into four parts, I discovered it was a canon. Just a fun little ditty. I guess it should be nicknamed the "AKAI DITTY".

Sounds Christmasy. 'Tis the season.

Please describe the baby :-)

I agree with Adam, quite 'Christmassy'--I'll add it to the instrumental parts of Christmas Eve's prelude concert. This year, because we're doing the Reimann Op. 110, I've added a flute and clarinet to the usual string quartet, and since they are private (college) students of colleagues of mine, they are eating up everything I send them and begging for more (and they have really good chops :-)

cool... of course, you might want to set Christmas text to the tune, someone! (Adam?)

Patricia:

Of course it is more like a round, so you can repeat it as many times as seems appropriate before the fade away.

Adjusted to be a four part round with Christmas text.

Adam Wood

Beat me to it, I was planning to...
Very nice.

found this on my computer today. I see the links above are broken. new ones here...

I added some simple words for those that might try it as a round.

The Christmas version could probably be redone with an Easter text.

francis

or Easter Alleluia I suppose

Adam Wood

I still think it's a Christmas song.
Here, you go... better late than never.
