This is a canon at the 5th in 2 parts with the upper part being a free voice. By "free" I mean non-canonic. It does seem a bit odd to refer to a melody written on a row as free. I guess it is all relative.
For the two canonic voices, I did not restrict myself in any way -- other than the canon, that is...
The structure of the piece is ABA. I tried to make the B section (measure 7 to 10) a bit more dissonant than the A section -- but not too much so. In a short piece like this, a little contrast is sufficient.
