Johann Pachelbel : Canon in D (arranged for four SATB recorders)

This canon (in the older sense of the word meaning a repeating ground bass with variations) is a well-known work with many arrangements available for a variety of ensembles. The original piece is part of Pachelbel's "Canon and Gigue in D" for 3 violins and Basso Continuo. This arrangement is a shortened and simplified version of the "Canon" part of this work, for four SATB recorders meaning Soprano (or Descant), Alto, Tenor and Bass Recorders. Here are printable PDF versions of the four parts: Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass and the Full Score. On mfiles we also have a piano arrangement of the same piece.
