Rare Attitude to Pachelbel's Canon in D

There is a number of classical music pieces that have been around for years.. no, for centuries! There are recognized by any musician at the first note and keep being performed at many occasions. The surprising thing is that despite the countless number of times we heard those amazing music gems, we still enjoy them every time the familiar melody sounds. The eternal classical ‘hits’ may I say always bring a special joy to the heart and lift the spirit. One can’t but be moved by the magic sounds of Moonlight Sonata, Fur Elise, Ave Maria, Clair de Lune and the list can go on and on. For every musician this list is special and may differ depending on the personal preferences. However, some of the pieces will be found on anyone’s music favs list!

Today I was amused by a video I came across – a funny ‘rant’ about a piece that’s been following a musician during all his life. Never looked at it from this perspective! The work is the well-known Canon in D by Johann Pachelbel. The one that’s on My personal list, to be honest. Well, I had a good laugh watching it!
