Seriously, it's a difficult question to answer. Canon to who? In what genre?
Unless of course, you're asking what the word means?
(the appropos definition there is: "an accepted list of works perceived to represent an authoratative cultural, ideological, historical, or biblical grouping."

Ian OTM. Also, a piece of music where varios parts of the orchestra/choir start at different times, singing the same song, and it is still constructed in such a way that it just sounds great that way.

Oh, yes, and then there's the music canon too, of course ;)
