JOHANN PACHELBEL

1st September 1653 --- 3rd March 1706

Johann Pachelbel(baptized 1653, Nürnberg--died 1706, Nürnberg), German composer known for his works for organ and one of the
great organ masters of the generation before J.S. Bach.

Pachelbel studied voice at Altdorf and Stevenensburg and held posts  as organist in Vienna,  Stuttgart,  and other cities.  In 1695 he
was appointed  organist at the  St. Sebalduskirche  in Nürnberg,  where he remained until his death.  He also taught organ,  and one
of  his pupils  was Johann Christoph Bach,  who in turn gave his  younger brother  Johann Sebastian Bach  his first  formal keyboard
lessons.

All Pachelbel's work is in a contrapuntally simple style. His own organ compositions show a knowledge of Italian forms derived from
Frescobaldi through J.J. Froberger. Of special importance are his chorale preludes, which did much to establish the chorale melodies
of  Protestant northern  Germany in the more  lyrical musical  atmosphere of  the Catholic south.  His  popular Canon  in D Major was
written for three violins and continuo and was published with a gigue in the same key. His son, Wilhelm Hieronymous Pachelbel, was
also an organist and composer.
