Pachelbel's Canon (also known as Canon in D major, or, more formally, Canon and Gigue in D major for three Violins and Basso Continuo (Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur für drei Violinen und Basso Continuo)), is the most famous piece of music by Johann Pachelbel. It was written in or around 1680, during the Baroque period, as a piece of chamber music for three violins and basso continuo, but has since been arranged for a wide variety of ensembles. The Canon was originally paired with a gigue in the same key, although this composition is rarely performed or recorded today. It is well known for its chord progression.
The piece is commonly played at weddings and is frequently present on miscellaneous classical music compilation CDs, along with other famous Baroque pieces such as Air on the G String by J. S. Bach (BWV 1068). A non-original viola pizzicato part is also commonly added (in a string orchestra or quartet setting) when a harpsichord or organ player is not used to improvise harmonies over the bass line.

Johann Pachelbel, baptized September 1, 1653 – buried March 9, 1706 was a German Baroque composer, organist and teacher who brought the south German organ tradition to its peak. He composed a large body of sacred and secular music, and his contributions to the development of the chorale prelude and fugue have earned him a place among the most important composers of the middle Baroque era.
Pachelbel's work enjoyed enormous popularity during his lifetime; he had many pupils and his music became a model for the composers of south and central Germany. Today, Pachelbel is best known for the Canon in D, the only canon he wrote. In addition to the canon, his most well-known works include the Chaconne in F minor, the Toccata in E minor for organ, and the Hexachordum Apollinis, a set of keyboard variations.

Australian journalist wrote of Nicolas de Angelis in the Sydney newspapers, "Coaxing smile, Italian dark hair, French charm: everything about Nicolas de Angelis is pure seduction. The size of his hands and the length of his fingers are impressive..." Even with his talent, without this latter gift from nature, Nicolas de Angelis would be unable to perform the classical repertoire for which he was trained.
At the age of ten, Nicolas started the guitar with a teacher from the Paris Academy who first inspired his great love of the instrument. "Without this difficult and rigorous training" says Nicolas, "I would have great problems when it comes to playing the apparently easier pieces."
At sixteen he belonged to a small group of very talented French musicians, among them Michel Berger. From the age of eighteen, he lent his talent to many pop starts such as Julien Clerc, Sylvie Vartan and Fabienne Thibault, and soon became one of the most requested session musicians.
Finally in 1981 he recorded his first solo LP, "Quelques Notes Pour Anna." This album paved the way for his further successes. Nicolas de Angelis is now recognised as the hero of the French Romantic Guitar trend. He has further recorded the following albums "Amour mon amour", "L'Espagnol", "Voyage", "Goa", "Grand Concert", "L'Amour à Plein Coeur", "Soleil", and the latest "Toute La Guitare". His aim is not to compete with his favourite maestros, but to create a new style all of his own.
He travels thousands of miles every year. "I have always lived and will always live for the guitar," he says, "even if I went to a desert island, I would take my guitar with me."
When he is not traveling, Nicolas lives on the outskirts of Paris with his wife, Evelyne, and his two daughters. "I have my own studio where I keep all my guitars and where I work on my own everyday, but I like to know that the people I love best are nearby." (Source：Internet)
