Jenkins Canon Analysis (9.15)

 Example 9.15 is in the key E major. Overall, the voices move in stepwise motion, with few leaps (Do-Sol and Sol-Fa). The length of the tonal areas is the common, simplistic way first introduced in class. In this case, however, the vii diminished chord is acting in place of the V chord. The rhythm of this example is repeated with basically every other measure being rhythmically similar. There was minimal rhythmic complexity, with quarter, eighth, and half notes in the majority. The embellishing tones used in this canon are frequently passing tones.
