  HOASM: Johann Pachelbel
Pachelbel, like many of this foremost contemporaries, was somehow able to combine his professional activities as a church musician, secular musician and teacher, not to mention his responsibilities as the father of a large family, with his activities as a composer.
Pachelbel's geographical situation, midway between Vienna and Lubeck, was mirrored in his musical situation, equally distant from the harmonic subtleties of Richter as from the passionate vehemence of Buxtehude.
However, Pachelbel is never restricted by formula, and the melody sometimes moves to the tenor or the bass, or is enriched by a delicate ornamental mantle.

 No. 1189: Theodore Pachelbel
Theodore was the 46-year-old son of Johann Pachelbel.
He was a close friend to the Bach family, godfather to one of Bach's sisters, and music teacher to a brother.
But with him, young Pachelbel had brought the music that would eventually do as much as politics ever could to civilize the harsh new world -- that he had chosen to make his own.

Pachelbel’s Canon to YouTube demonstrates the value of public domain materials and web-based collaboration:
This process of influence, imitation and inspiration may bedevil the those who despair at the future of copyright but is heartening to connoisseurs of classical music.
Now if only YouTube facilitated CC licensing of contributed videos (like blip.tv) some of those modern reworkings of Pachelbel’s Canon would be legally available for other forms of remix, e.g., sampling (mp3).

 Amazon.com: Pachelbel's Greatest Hit: Canon in D: Music: Norman Fischer,Johann Pachelbel,George Rochberg,Ettore ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Pachelbel's Canon in D is my very favorite piece of music, so when I received this CD as an "early Christmas present" I was really happy.
I'm not a big fan of brass instruments, nevertheless, track three, performed by The Canadian Brass was lovely and they did stick to the melody of the Canon, rather then going off on tangents.
I thought about giving this CD three stars, but I felt that would be doing a disservice to tracks one and eight, especially, which in my mind, are flawless.

 Techdirt: If Pachelbel Were Still Alive Today, Would He Be Suing YouTube?
Pachelbel's Canon in D is usually played on the harp by a bored matron during brunch at the Mansion on Turtle Creek.
You're assuming Pachelbel would be as lawsuit-happy as Americans seem to be, who's to say he wouldn't be thrilled to hear his music performed on a new instrument, in a new way?
So, I guess Pachelbel would also be right steamed at the people who arrange his music for concert bands, and other uses too...since you can BET they've altered his music as much as anyone else.
