This is a music form consisting of 4 voices. The lead voice enters alone, and the other voices follow one by one. The following voices duplicate the form of the first voice, with some differences allowed according to the rules, and the voices come in at different pitches. This is a contrapuntal technique resembling but not identical to the fugue.
