pachelbel canon in d major
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Af372EQLck
Hi everyone I was just wondering what everyone thought of this beautiful piece of music. I only recently came across it and glad i did. I'm not usually into the classical music but this piece if so uplifting it truly is wonderful in my opinion what do you think? |

Pachabel's canon although simplistic is a heavenly, uplifting piece of music. It's been used in many pop songs such as obviously in Coolio's C U When you Get There, N Dubz We Dance On (which amazingly made me like one of their songs
) plus less obviously but still present in The Farm's Altogether Now.

I came into this thread to mention the N-Dubz/Bodyrox song, but the poster above me already mentioned it lol. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1BkR760o94
Chipmunk and Keri Hilson also had a song last year, which didn't quite sample it, but sounded very similar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKrq8QUOIXc I can play Canon on the radio. I agree, it's a beautiful song!

When you mention Pachabel Canon, this should get a mention http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um9KsrH377A rbautz: Allegri - Miserere is simply magical, especially the top notes (Tallis Scholar's track must be on youtube) Another moving classical piece is Chopin's Nocturne in C Sharp Minor Quote:

Not the same era or style, but Schubert's Ave Maria is a lovely, serene, simple classical piece. My favourite versions are all soprano and piano, rather than choirboy and organ.

Brian Eno did an interesting version, gradually slipping out of time..
Plus his own An Ending (Ascent) has potential as a modern complimentary piece! |

Loads of modern songs have ripped off Pachelbel and his canon:

This version got quite a bit of coverage a few years back:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvDedo8r1Fk But my favourite classical piece is Toccata and Fugue in D Minor as played on this amazing 300 year old organ: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Aej0vQJNQA |

Great piece along with other composers who created such amazing music from the likes of Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, Handel, Telemann, Bach (all of them), Bizet, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Rudel, Rachmaninov, Samuel Barber etc etc I love early music ie Renaissance music as well.
Best arrangement of Canon in D is by Brian Crain IMO Fantastic pianist as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKhKwVYP4z0 Some renaissance music composed in the 13th century http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1M3DXwJLLI |
