What a wonderful piece of music by a great composer! It can be played intimately and gently, as here, or robustly - each with excellent effect.

It was composed about eleven years BEFORE Pachelbel's canon ... The base of F. upon a gnd. is "D A B F# G A" and Pachelbel's canon is the same, but with the adition of an "D G" between the G - A ... Althought this fantasy isn't a canon, it has a lot of canonic and fugal passages/ textures ... and, in my opinion, is much more cheerfull than the canon...

Les quatre premières notes de la basse sont les mêmes.
Purcell 3/4, Rachelbell 4/4.
Les décorations sont des formules passe-partout de l'époque dans les deux cas.
Ce sont des interprétations plus ou moins romantiques qui ont popularisé les morceaux.

No coincidence it's 5:15 long then ;)

reminds me of the string section in quadrophenia

sounds a bit like pachelbel's canon, no?

Graceful, superb music. And yet there is something very intimate about it. Wonderful.
