Canon In D Major | ||||||
|
Canon In D Major, also known as Pachelbel's Canon or Canon and Gigue for 3 violins and basso continuo is the most famous composition of Johann Pachelbel. It was originally scored for three violins and basso continuo and paired with a gigue in the same key. The song was composed in the 1600s, but like many songs of the era, it was largely forgotten until its rediscovery in the 1900s. The song was modernly published in 1919, and became extremely popular. To this day, the song is well recognized and often played at weddings and concerts. Due to it's popularity and public domain status, it has found it's way into numerous video games.
