Pachelbel – Canon. Rock Version
I am sure at some point in time you have heard this composition by Johann Pachelbel. It is played during most wedding scenes in movies or tv shows. It is a beautiful piece of music. Below is a link to download the MP3 of this song. Download it and have a listen if you aren’t too sure what the music sounds like, it will help you appreciate the Rock version of this much more.
I was browsing around Youtube the other day, and happened upon a video called simply “guitar”, which is the rock version of this. I was blown away. Watching “funtwo” play this piece was mesmerizing. There are other versions of Canon Rock on Youtube, but this one is my favourite because of how humble the musician seems, and of course the pure skill and talent he demonstrates. Watch it below:
