It really is beautiful.

Yes, yes it is.

Pachelbel's? Or someone else's?

Been one of my favorites for years.

Requires much volume to truly appreciate.

One personal favourite of mine is Faure's 'Pavane' (version without vocals) - if anyone knows who did a slightly jazzy version on alto sax or cor anglais I'd appreciate the info, I seem to keep hearing it piped into elevators everywhere I go but can't track it down.

I have a feeling I may no longer be a newbie...

Cannon: A large gun.
Canon: A piece of music in which each voice imitates the previous voice at a fixed distance.

It should be noted that the popular Canon in D by Pachabel is not actually a true canon. Yes, I'm a dork. And I've played that damn tune so many times at weddings that if I hear it one more time, I'll just snap.

Me too. And the cello part is boring as hell. Half note. Half note. Half note. Half note. Etc.

Whoo-hoo! Another clarinettist/clarinetter/clarinet player. 12 years of crappy scales and arpeggios, but at least you get to have volume contests with the saxophones. When the flutes try to compete too - hahaha! Purse those lips, boys!
