Canon in D or Pachelbel's Canon is one of my favorite classical pieces, In times of stress or hardships it's one of my go to Classics.


This Magical Piece of Classical Music has been used openly, and is sometimes hidden in many modern songs.



Canon makes any song sound Beautiful





And then there is Canon Rock - BOOM!

My go to piece, when teaching myself a new instrument.

I am a master of none of them. I just like the challenge. When I can play an instrument well enough that the listener, can recognize the music I am playing, I usually move on to another.

I will never be asked to play for any venue, but I love learning new instruments.

Canon in D or Pachelbel's Canon is a very pleasing piece to learn, regardless of the instrument.

Maybe One Day

This is what I had to say about the Pachelbel Canon on another forum:

After all these years, still my most loved tune. But, beware, for there is deep melancholy beneath the sweet surface. If you listen to it deeply, it can rip your heart out...
