    The Crab Canon by J. S. Bach

    Uploaded by

    The Crab Canon by J. S. Bach is a musical canon written for two melodic instruments or voices. In the canon, the melody is played or sung backwards by the second instrument or voice from the entry of the first. This results in the lines moving sideways like a crab and meeting in the middle, hence the name "Crab Canon". The piece demonstrates Bach's mastery of counterpoint and ability to write complex, intertwining melodic lines.
