I've heard many far more enjoyable performances of this to be honest. This version feels incredibly restricted and constrained. It is mostly lacking in emotional expression, whereas other versions are really moving. Technically I think there's a lot of staccato in this - have never seen the score so maybe that's how he wrote it(?) but I prefer a bit more phrasing and sustained notes.
Do please pass on my comments to the performers...
I was just watching (on youtube) a young man mixing club/house/electronica music and doing vocals for a song live. Eventually I realized there was a classical song that he was mixing into it! Sure enough it's Canon in D. It's nice to see young artists utilize the classics. The finale was just great...it's Lolo Forest by Boy Eats Drum Machine. (BEDM)
Pretty dang epic when you get a night-club crowd to cheer and dance to Pachelbel!
Mozart picture? Really? I mean, he was probably the greatest classical composer ever, but this piece was written by Johann Pachelbel. Which is is probably why it's called PACHELBEL's Canon.
Pachelbel, Johann (1653-1706), German composer, one of the great organ masters of the generations before J.S. Bach, was born in Nurnberb in August 1653. He studied in Altdorf and Regensburg, and later held posts as organist in Vienna, Stuttgart, and other cities. In 1695 he was appointed organist at the St. Sebalduskirche in Nurnberg, where he remained until his death on March 6 or 7, 1706. All Pachellbel’s work is in a clear and contrapuntally simple style.
His organ compositions show a knowledge of the Italian forms such as the toccata, derived through J.J Froberger from G. Frescobalddi, of special importance are his chorale-preludes, which did much to establish the chorale melodies of Protestant north Germany in the more lyrical musical atmosphere of the Catholic south. Pachelbel also wrote harpsichord music, but with out much feeling for that instrument’s individuality, and other instrumental music, including six suites for two violins.
Like I said......GENIUS, I believe it wont be bettered.
if anyone can offer a piece of music which has all this has and does what this does please let me know what it is called.................you will struggle I promise!
when most young people these days think of music you here lil wayne rick ross nicki minaj lmfao and many others but very few will say pachelbel mozart bach beethoven vivaldi and many other amazing classical composers you have faded in the hearts of children but some will always remeber you i was brought up on your music and you will forever be apart of me
@riceisdelicious Looks like the grammar cop just busted the grammar cop on the charges of spelling shit wrong! Well sir, it's been a good run but escort me to jail I shall plead the 5th!
@IMMAKIMMI Not in that context. "Nor" is used in sentences to show a non-contrasting negative idea whereas "not" is used to negate a statement. That is to say, for nor to be used properly in that sentence, it would have had to say "...It's not you're nor your!". Of course, since that goes against the meaning of what he was trying to say, that wouldn't be correct.
@riceisdelicious@IMMAKIMMI typo maybe? "R" and "T" are right next to eachother. He may have hit the "R" key by accident. Either way, this is Youtube, not a college level abstract or something.
@Torcan1 I agree, but if you're going to critisize someone else about being stupid in the future I would bother to look up the difference between "your" and "you're". Since you used it incorrectly there. Just a tip.
@Torcan1 This is a crime against classical music! But hey, who could stay upset with such an absolute dream of a piece of music like that? Certainly not me!
Does anyone know how i can get hold of THIS exact version of Pachelbel Canon in D Major. I found so many slight variations of this song but i want this one as it's so beautiful and want it for my wedding day at the end of this month.
@izzyleanne I may be late in response to your request but I do know how,you buy or download this song in Amazon.com .Remember to find "Canon in D Major" by Rudolf Baumgartner as an mp3 download.
Yeah, I was about to say, that looks an awful lot like Mozart
