...though I am not sure how much others will appreciate the great way that this film illustrates a musical concept without using any words. A canon or a 'round' is a very simple musical style where once a person or group begins singing, soon after another group or person begins the song. This can be repeated many, many times and one of the most common examples in the United States is the old song "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"--which is commonly done in this style. Kids are often taught this type of singing in elementary schools but here with this short film a teacher can actually teach the concept without any words--just letting the stop-motion shapes or animals or creature illustrate visually a canon.
The film is excessively clever and well done. Non-musically inclined folks, however, may not appreciate or care.
