The musical palindrome is similar to the palindrome in language: it is a music that is the same when played forward or backward. There are numerous examples in the classical music oeuvre, including Machaut's 'Ma fin est mon commencement,' Haydn's Symphony no. 47, Bach's Musical Offering, and Berg's Lulu.

What bands name is a palindrome?
ABBA is the only palindromic band to have had a song in the UK charts that is also a palindrome - SOS.
What song is the same backwards?
However great a piece of music is, it usually sounds pretty pants when it's played backwards. But not Haydn's Minuet and Trio from his Symphony No. 47 – nicknamed 'The Palindrome' – because Haydn used a neat bit of musical trickery to create a piece that's perfectly symmetrical.
What is a perfect palindrome?
A perfect palindrome is a word or phrase that is identical forward or backward, such as the word “racecar”, “mom”, or “dad”. An example of a standard palindrome is “Madam, I'm Adam” because the characters are identical forwards or backwards, provided you remove the spaces, and punctuation marks.
