Last episode of my brief series about “campanella patterns”: today we talking about pentatonic scales!

“Pachelbel’s Canon” is the common name for the the piece “Canon and Gigue for 3 violins and basso continuo” by the Johann Pachelbel, also referred to as Canon and Gigue in D or Canon in D.

A timeless classic!

Today further patterns, focused on Minor scales.

Remember me, though I have to say goodbye
Remember me, don’t let it make you cry
