The row is 3, 4, 2, 5, 1, 6, 7 -- this time I made the row myself rather than borrowing one.
I set it in 7/8 time using the eighth note as the unit duration so that the row would take exactly 4 measures. To create the piece I followed the original with the inversion (see Saturday's entry) and then RI and R.
The whole canon theme is:
3 4 2 5 1 6 7, 5 4 6 3 7 2 1, 1 2 7 3 6 4 5, 7 6 1 5 2 4 3
Constructed this way it makes a palindrome again -- I do have a predilection for such things. I also purposely put "2 1 1 2" together in the middle to have a sort of iterative climax.
There is much independence between the parts again here and the resultant rhythm becomes more dense to the climax and then thins somewhat.
