Composed by Johann Pachelbel. Arranged by James M. Guthrie, ASCAP. Baroque,Standards,Wedding. Score and part. 7 pages. Jmsgu3 #3627117. Published by jmsgu3 (A0.549899).Pachelbel's Canon in D is a well-known musical piece composed by Johann Pachelbel, a German Baroque composer. It was initially scored for three violins and basso continuo and is admired for its serene yet joyful character. Its composition's exact date and circumstances are unknown, but it is believed to have been written around 1680-90. The piece became popular in the late 20th century, particularly after a 1968 arrangement and recording by the Jean-François Paillard chamber orchestra. Its popularity is attributed to its simple yet beautiful melody, making it a standard feature at weddings and in popular culture. Pachelbel's Canon is constructed as a canon with elements of a chaconne and is known for using an ostinato and a repeating bass line. Despite its initial obscurity, the piece has become one of the most widely performed compositions of the Baroque period.
