Actually this is a music idea 1st used by Beethoven called Retrograde Motion. As a piece would progress in one cleft (treble/saprano) the bass part would be written in reverse, chronological order of notes to produce the the counterpoint movement, which produces the depth of his comps.These can be great exercises for both poets and musicians because you got to practice everyday to become one with your instrument, and this is one way of keeping your voice and ears nimble.
