The musical term for this is “canon”. The entire form of this piece is in Rondo form. That means there is an “A” section, followed by a “B” section, returning to the “A” then on to a “C” section, “A” , “D” ending with “A”. Ask any 4th grader about this Iʻm sure they will be happy to fill you in on all the particulars.
