Selected Organ Works by Johann Pachelbel Harpsichord - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: S9.Q575495

Although the Canon in D major for three violins and basso continuo earned him virtually worldwide fame, the oeuvre of Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706) undoubtedly focuses on the field of organ music. His oeuvre influenced subsequent generations of organists until far into the 19th century and still holds a great fascination, particularly because of its cantabile style and melodious harmony. This new edition contains three of the best-known and most frequently played works: the Prelude in D minor which is characterised by varied effects and a virtuoso obbligato pedal, as well as two melodious Ciacones in D minor and F minor with easily structured themes.

Bien que le Canon pour trois violons et basse continue ait rendu Pachelbel mondialement célèbre, son oeuvre reste sans conteste concentrée sur la musique pour orgue. Trois de ses compositions parmi les plus connues et les plus jouées sont réunies dans cet album.
