Canon in D Major

By Johann Pachelbel

Background

Like his other works, Pachelbel’s Canon went out of style, and remained in obscurity for centuries.

A 1968 arrangement and recording of it by the Jean-François Paillard chamber orchestra gained popularity, and in the 1970s the piece began to be recorded by many ensembles.

Since the 1980s, it has also found increasingly common use in weddings and funeral ceremonies in the Western world (Source: Wikipedia)

  1. Hey, Fred Flintstone resembles Uncle Tony. (Perfect cookie jar.)

    I saw Fly Me to the Moon (2024) this week. It’s about Apollo 11, but it’s a also rom com (with patriotism) and some vintage news footage.

    Good luck and have fun at Raise the Bar!

    • Thank you for commenting Priscilla. I thought that same thing, when we saw that Fred Flintstone cookie jar–that looks like Uncle Tony. He knew it did 😊. Raise the Bar will be a bit on an embarrassment for me, as I usually lift considerably more than I am going to this Saturday. Still, it will be a reasonably respectable lift for a 78 year old.
