A frequent favourite among thousands even today, particularly when planning events such as weddings, Pachelbel’s canon has established itself as one of the finest pieces of classical music ever composed. Although initially popular when first performed in the early 1700s, Pachelbel’s finest work disappeared from the planet for a good few years before a massive surge in popularity in the twentieth century saw a revival in popularity.
Influencing artists even in today’s pop-centric world, the true scope and imagination of Pachelbel’s composing really cannot be understated here. A touching and emotional piece, it’s personality comes out off the pages each time it is played and the inescapable history of the piece is enough to give you tingles.
