Johann Pachelbel: Ciacona (Chaconne) in D minor

[BaroqueMusicOnly]

did pachelbel him self play on this organ?

[tribuletto]

@BaroqueMusicOnly No, he could not. This organ was built in 1721, Pachelbel died in 1706.

This organ was mad for the piece.

I would like to become more familiar with baroque/classical organ music, but I'm afraid I'm quite unlearned on the subject.

Whom can you recommend? I quite enjoy what I've heard of Pachelbel, and probably unsurprisingly I also like Bach, especially his trio sonatas.

Oh, and thank you for the upload. Beautiful!

Try: Dutch -Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck ("The Amsterdam Orpheus", died 1621); Anthoni van Noordt (17. Cent.); German (16/17. Cent)-Samuel Scheidt, Heinrich Scheidemann, Paul Seiffert, Franz Tunder, DIETRICH BUXTEHUDE (very important), Nikolaus Bruhns, Vincent Lubeck, Georg Bohm, Matthias Weckmann, Arnold Matthias Brunckhorst, Andreas Duben, Gustav Duben.

Spanish-Pablo Bruna, Joan Cabanilles, Jose Jimenez.

French-Jehan Titelouze, Louis and Francois Couperin, Louis Marchand etc.

Nice and Strange music. Strange because I have already felt this emotion when listening to this music before but I forgot when and where was it.

[saintdracula1]

@GCCBT17000 probably when you were listening to BWV582

Nice playing but of course, the real Silbermann doesn't have that registrative flexibility.

[tribuletto]

@ForestChav Thanks! I used the sample set as a 'real' Silbermann: this instrument has two manuals and pedal and I didn't use any technological trick so the registrative flexibility is genuine: you could play the piece on the original organ in this manner.

[jansiur]

One of the most beautiful pieces ever composed.

[degautaborg]

Thank you tribuletto!

Very nicely done. I am forwarding this to many of my American friends. Pachelbel is one of the many great pre-Bach Lutheran composers.

[mesquiteguy1221]

Very Nice. Just the sort of piece I like to hear prior to church services.

[bordone32]

I'm think the results it's very very Good!!

[tribuletto]

Thanks!
