Canon D

With this work, Pachelbel, who was born in Nuremberg, created one of the most popular orchestral pieces of the baroque period. In the canon two of the strictest contrapuntal forms are combined: The three violin parts form anextensive canon with entries of two bars distance. To this, a ground bass (basso ostinato) has been added repeating its two-bar tone formula 28 times. The technical mastery of the piece can be ad-mired just as much as its effectlies in the melodic and sensuous power of its string tones. The modest technical demands on the musicians are diametrically opposed to the compositional level: they do not go beyond the third position.

Kanon : für Klavier leicht spielbar bearbeitet

If there is a work in which the name of the composer Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706) is going to live on, it without doubt is his canon. This extremely elaborate and at the same time tonally beautiful and sensuous work has made the name of Pachelbel known far beyond the confines of organ and church music, his principal sphere of work. Most recently during Christmas, the original version for three violins and basso continuo, or even various arrangements, could be heard on the radio or at shopping centres. To make this work accessible even to piano players, Jürgen Krekel now presents an easily playable arrangement for the piano.
