Canon a 4 voc. perpetuus, by Johann Sebastian Bach, sung by Quire Cleveland, dir. Ross W. Duffin, at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Akron OH, on Oct. 29, 2017.
This perpetual canon for four voices by J. S. Bach is found in a manuscript in Bach’s own handwriting, signed at Weimar on August 2, 1713. The bass begins, followed in turn by the successively higher voices, each a fifth above the previous one. The piece achieved fame in modern times as a favorite of the Swingle Singers, whom we emulate for the beginning of our arrangement. After that, I have added a new lyric in the spirit of the piece. The basses sing the melody once through each time, both without and with text, before the canon begins.
