[@hansomekim1219]

@@VideoMask93 Huh, I've never heard of program music but when I look it up, I was under the impression that all music was program music. But I suppose most classical pieces really were just ballroom dance stuff, with no meaning beyond the sounds.

[@VideoMask93]

@@hansomekim1219 To be honest, the term still confuses me on occasion-my personal definition would be that "program music" is any music that, through music (not lyrics), evokes some image. For instance, Iron Maiden songs like The Trooper evoke horse gallops with their galloping basslines. The 1812 overture shows the conflict between France and Russia by contrasting La Marseillaise with Russian sacred and folk songs, culminating in God Save the Tsar during the famous finale. This is how I rationalize that pop songs are otherwise all program music-if a song is just meant to be listened to for its melody and lyrics in itself, then that doesn't seem programmatic to me. YMMV.

I feel like this song should really be called Pachelbel's Journey... Its almost like a Journey through the world of Canon rather than a nightmare.

[@EmonEconomist]

I believe (could be wrong) it's named Pachelbel's Nightmare in reference to Kepler's Somnium (1634), believed to be one of the earliest science fiction stories. I haven't read Somnium, but I have read Galileo's Dream by Kim Stanley Robinson and there are clear parallels between Pachelbel's and Galileo's respective stories.

For some 25 years or so, Pachelbel's Canon in D has probably been my most loved and favorite piece of music in any genre, ever! It took me until today, 3 years after you composed this, to find your version. I have to say you did and amazing and fantastic job. I have never heard a remix/alternate version so powerfully done then this one. It took me back to when I would listen to Pachelbel's Canon in D cranked so loud I couldn't hear anything else but that, over and over again. So beautifully and emotionally done. Thank You!

This is honestly one of the best improvised Canon in D I have ever heard. Not only because there is a story behind it, but also because how you transformed a piece of music that was supposed to calm and peaceful to something out of the era. This improvised version is truly beautiful. Thank you so much for making this version, we all love it. And you should write out a sheet music of this, and publish it as "Pachelbel's Nightmare". I am sure lots of people will love it.

[@ayushrudra8600]

It is 1677 in Vienna. In a small apartment, Johann Pachelbel sits in front of a wooden desk, finishing the touches to his latest chamber work. "Hmm... I have no idea what to call this... ahh whatever, Canon it is. Canon in D." He puts the manuscript into his drawer, satisfied with his work. Stifling a yawn, he heads to bed and soon falls asleep. The dream begins. Canon in D plays in his mindscape, while his vision opens to a grassy clearing in the midst of the forest. "Wow! So peaceful. Look at these flowers!" Johann walks amongst the daisies, breathing in the incredible scent. The clouds become overcast and the sky turns dark. A small distance away from, a dark presence lurks. "Who's there?" Johann exclaims. The shadow emerges. It's a figure, a shade. It's neither a man or a monster. Abruptly, the shadow launches itself at Pachelbel. Its speed is blindingly fast. "WHO ARE YOU?" Johann screams as he is tackled to the ground. The two wrestle for control. The shadow pins Johann down, growling with menace. "Who... TF... are you" Johann gasps for breath as the shadow chokes the life out of him. The shadow grins. An evil pair of red eyes form. "I... come... from... the... future... to... hunt... you... down." The shadow menaces. Johann is flabbergasted. "Who... what... where... why ME?!" "You are Johann Pachelbel, yes?" "Y-yes... how do you know me?" The shadow smirks. "You have recently finished a piece of ensemble music, yes?" Pachelbel's eyes widen. "How did you know? 3 violins and a cello, I started it a few weeks ago and now it's done." "Mm-hmm. Tell me what kind of notes do the violins play?" "What do you mean? The violins play the melody of course! It's a beautiful harmony, full of inversions and counterp-" "Whatever!" The shadow rudely interrupts. TBC

I will never hear this piece the same way again! Thank you, this is beautiful. You have an amazing talent, and I am so privileged to live in a time where someone like you can put together a visually engaging and breathtaking new way to take in some of the most beautiful music ever written for someone like me. And man, those stories are incredible. This and one other so far have made me cry. Do you write them yourself? They are amazing, and as a musician, journalist, and published poet - you make me want to challenge myself to do write alongside a piece of music history myself. That, and more than anything, this production made me want to stop my playlist and seek out your original compositions. Subliminal advertising meets shameless self-promotion, wrapped up in acid-laced classical music fanfiction. Who knew? And yes, you can totally caption a video with that phrase ;) But whatever you do, please don't stop making these videos! I needz them in meh lifes!

That's the beauty of music, it doesn't require human intervention from his voice sometimes.

this is forward human being bro, you just passed the test to be the God of piano.

Oh man, this is awesome. Right from the start, the abnormal low tones are like a flashback to a false or corrupted memory of someone once thought to be pure, but traces of their darkness being found that lead up to the tragic state they're in now.

That was so immersive. So deep. So real. Thank you for sharing your story and your incredible talent.

The story that goes with this fabulous piece absolutely glorious! as the story says , I think this would truly be Pachelbel's Nightmare! But no doubt this the one of the best variations on Canon in D I have ever heard! Very well done for writing such a great pice :)

I just listened to the whole thing again with captions on and now I'm crying my eyes out 🥺 That was beyond amazing and I'm speechless

[@microblast2004]

It's true that you use a lot of arpeggios, your music is so good that I doubt that it will ever be forgotten.
