A polyphonic song in which other voices sing the same melody as the preceding one, with each voice following after the previous one at regular intervals (usually 2-4 bars), or the act of singing it. Depending on the number of voices, it is called a two-part round, a three-part round, etc. It is a form of vocal canon, and usually has repeat signs, so it can be repeated infinitely. There have been many such rounds in Western music since "Summer Has Come" in the 14th century. One piece that is very popular in Japan is "Quiet by the Lake."

先行する旋律と同じ旋律を一定の間隔(通常2~4小節)を置きながら、他の声部が次々と追うように歌い進む多声歌曲、またそれを歌うこと。声部数により二部輪唱、三部輪唱などとよばれる。声楽カノンの一形態で、通常、反復記号が置かれるため、無限に繰り返すことができる。西洋音楽には14世紀の『夏は来たりぬ』以来数多く存在する。日本で非常によく親しまれている作品に『静かな湖畔』がある。 [石多正男] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
