Flash Mob - Pachelbel's Canon (Canon in D) performed by 7-16 year old kids (HD) 🎵

To all the parents who encourage their kids to play, ferry them to rehearsals, and pay for the lessons and instruments you've done your part to make the world a better place. Thank you!

Pachelbel must have received a type of divine inspiration for such a beautiful timeless powerful peice.

From the smiles on the kids' faces as they were joining the group, you could see that they were prepared and excited. THOSE are the kind of young people that the world needs more of.

[@kelly73]

It is so sad the US does not provide the funding for the arts to be a priority in schools. It teaches our youth so much more than music. This is beautiful. So much so, it brought me to tears.

[@archiebald4717]

The teachers are too tied up worrying about pronouns and trying to convince the pupils that a woman can have a penis. Schools are no longer about education and cultural enrichment, they are centres for indoctrination.

[@westsidedavid1102]

I was fortunate enough to grow up in a community that did encourage children to participate in music programs and the like. I learned the basic themes to a good deal of Gilbert & Sullivan, and a profound appreciation of what music involves. One day on a walk, my wife asked me to tell her the notes n a B-flat minor scale. From memory of what I had learned in school, I did it.

[@WesB1972]

To busy teaching critical race theory and how to change your gender and become a drag queen.

[@beverlydinsmore811]

It’s the same in the uk. Only the privileged get the chance to learn a musical instrument. I can play the ukulele (up to a point) but I’ve been teaching my oldest grandson for about 2 years and who is 11 now. If he wanted to do it at secondary school it would cost too much. It’s a shame. I did violin at junior school as it was free and loved it so much. When I went to secondary I knew my parents couldn’t afford it so told them I didn’t want to do it any more. I really did though. Shame but that’s life!!

Amazing kids! Love Canon in D and loved every note they played! Their parents must be sooooo proud!

[@MultiMolly21]

What a wonderful performance! The most amazing part was that nobody was reading music, all had the entire thing memorized, a rare accomplishment even for adults.

[@Gurci28]

Renaissance music consisted of smooth regular flow of rhythm while baroque music was comprised of a metrical rhythm with varied motion.

[@Gurci28]

It was in the Baroque era - roughly 1600-1750 - that the notion of the orchestra really came into its own, and composers started to layer instruments up in complex polyphony - different musical parts - and harmony. 3:23 [Classic FM]

[@Gurci28]

When and where Pachelbel's Canon originated, and why exactly he composed it, is largely a mystery to music historians. [The New York Times]

[@Gurci28]

The film 'Ordinary People' in 1980 brought Pachelbel's Canon to a mass audience. 0:13

[@Gurci28]

The word “canon” comes from the Greek kanṓn, for “rule” or “standard.” In canons, the general rule is this: one voice plays the melody, and after some interval of time, the second voice plays the same melody, then the third voice, and so on. In Pachelbel’s score, while the three upper voices play lofty melodies, the bass voice, typically performed on the cello, is stuck playing a pattern of just eight notes over and over, and over, for 27 repetitions in total. [WQXR]

[@DavidCooper-dm9cz]

It’s nice to see how these kids play at their age, it’s just too bad kids in America are far more concerned with what isn’t between their legs than achieving goals and dreams that would benefit them later in life..

I salute all those brilliant talented Children for their wonderful talent, and their parents for taking the time, to help them become the the talented children they are, and of course their teachers, they make the world a better place with their music, and of course carry on such a great musical legacy for the likes of Pachelbel, Mozart etc who no doubt worked tirelessly in creating such beautiful pieces

[@mindywong3839]

This piece never fails to move me to tears especially now since my mom passed away a mere 14 months ago and I have not stopped grieving daily. It's sad a lot of kids don't have the privilege of learning music and worse endure hunger in many parts of the world. Kids who have the opportunity to learn music at a young age should treasure this gift as they will grow up to be disciplined and well mannered human beings. I always love watching the mannerism of such kids as they tend to come from good families since music lessons and the effort put into ferrying them to and fro lessons (aka car) are not financial commitments normal working parents can afford.

[@TheTrebbieFan]

Well done by young talented musicians. However, this Canon was not composed for orchestra, so a lot of the emotion it usually evokes is sadly missing. It is best performed solo on piano, violin or even acoustic guitar. I have a young friend, age 14, who plays this on piano flawlessly and, of course, with no sheet music. A good musician does not need sheet music when performing publicly - nor a conductor!
