Chapter 94: The Sword

At the end of the class, Victor said to his students, "I know many of you are hard-working and some of you have been studying canon on your own for a while. I’d like to see every one of you try to write a piece of canon to facilitate your understanding toward this compositional technique."

While the other students were pretty excited about it, Lucien remained silent with his own thoughts. Seeing that, Victor said to Lucien, "Lucien, although you’re indeed very talented, don’t underestimate canon. Simple as it seems to be, an outstanding piece of cannon can still become a masterpiece that lasts for generations, just like Mr. Hersey’s Canon in D. And practicing cannon is very beneficial to a student like you who don’t have a very solid music foundation."
