Johann Pachelbel's beloved Canon, the first movement of the Canon
and Gigue in D major, was completely unknown until its publication
in a 1918 article in the German periodical "Archiv f r
Musikwissenschaft." The first complete score and parts, edited by
Max Seiffert, appeared 11 years later. Though receiving some
attention, the work only rocketed to fame in the 1970s in the wake
of a recording made by the French conductor Jean-Fran ois Paillard.
In recent years, Seiffert's edition has come under fire due to his
his fairly liberal addition of tempi and dynamics. The problem of
making a definitive score is made very challenging because the
composer's manuscript is lost, and the only extant source is a 19th
century copy located in the Berlin State Library. The present
urtext score has no added articulations, tempi or slurs. Only
dynamics have been added, as a possible suggested interpretation
only.
This popular piece is in great demand and is now available for folk
harp. This book includes several arrangements: an easy solo
version, an advanced solo version in the keys of G and D, and a
duet version for harp and melody instrument.
for SSSATB unaccompanied or with guitar This moving rendition of
Pachelbel's Canon sets the 'Requiescat' from Oscar Wilde's 'Rosa
Mystica' (1890). Chilcott displays his sensitivity as a vocal
arranger, exploiting the richness of the SSSATB format and the
lyricism of the optional guitar accompaniment. The result is a
gratifying new take on a well-loved classic, sure to touch choirs
and audiences alike.
