In proposing the canonic form to a group of European and American composers, he was following the lead of Stravinsky himself, who wrote a number of commemorative pieces in this form. This canon may be performed by three trumpets with different mutes; or by 1) muted trumpet, 2) Clarinet, 3) Oboe; or by any three instruments having the range of the score written in C. To facilitate performance, this edition contains 'playing scores' both in C and B-flat. Song list
