Perpetual Canon

by Ted Kirk

Composed by: J S Bach

From THE MUSICAL OFFERING by Johann Sebastian Bach

This piece is scored for violin, flute and continuo (harpsichord with 'cello). The violin part is an exact inversion of the flute part, beginning five notes higher and running two bars behind. An overlapping repeat makes it possible to continue for ever.

My transcription goes round three times. You can change this by altering the number of times 'cb' appears in the words 'go3' and 'go5'. 'go3' will be in operation if you are using a Music 3000 expander, 'go5' otherwise.
