Description:
The composer Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706) from Nuremberg left an extensive Clavierwerk [piano oeuvre] which can be played on the organ, harpsichord or modern piano alike. He was a master of variations and often used the form of the chaconne by writing the variations on a basso ostinato or a basic harmonic pattern. The present Ciacaona con variazioni' in C major proves him to be a master of the variation technique: He develops a varied and elaborate series of 24 variations from a simple four-bar root theme. Since each variation has its own stylistic character and alternately places special emphasis on melodic, contrapuntal-polyphonic or virtuoso aspects, the not very difficult cycle is perfect for instrumental lessons.
