The melody of one voice follows another from beginning to end, and the same melody of several voices appears in turn, crosses, imitates each other, chases each other and entangles each other, while the voices are almost monotonous repetition. Until the last ... the last summary, the last chord, they will blend together and never part. Extremely touching music, just like two people living together. Music created by Cannon technique is called "Cannon music". Canon Canon is not as dramatic and thrilling as Romantic works, but it has produced various timbre effects in a seemingly repetitive and ordinary process. The ordinary rhythm is pulsating with ever-changing vitality, which makes people intoxicated and quiet like angels. The familiar Rondo is one of the cannon songs.
