"Pacabel Canon"; The Greatest Work of Man?

Northwind

Sorry, I should have said that I'nm surprised anyone here shows such good taste. That music rocks. It's my favourite.
 
This subject is easy.
The greatest accomplishment of man to date was the tv series "the upright citizens brigade".
From episode 1 to episode 30 this unparralelled brilliance makes "the matrix" look like "slam dunk ernest" and "fight club" look like an untalented child's drawing.
 
Beethoven's Symphonies......but two favourite of all times are
Brahms and Lizst...............:D

Sorry, but I didn't know what the title meant. As I said, I'm no great scholar of music.

It was for the wider audience Adam.......most Aussies know the Rhyming slang....bees and honey...:)
 
Circe, well said! Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings is amazing. I would consider it the best work ever.
 
i disagree

why would canon be the best work by man:shrug: when there are wonderful pieces written by such masters as bach my two most favirote pieces are albinonis adagio in g minor and bach double violin concerto (the secon movement)
 
:)rolleyes: in my opinion...)

The greatest musical work is undoubtly Beethoven's 9th. If Heaven existed i imagine that would be the kind of music that you would hear if you were up there in Elysium. What an emotional scope this work has... :bawl: (cry of joy)

About Pachelbel's Canon, not the greatest, but one of the greatest musical works ever written. And have you heard Hexachordum Apollinis? F****** amazing! :eek:
 
beethoven

whilst i agree that beethovens ninth is fantastic i think the prelude from carmen is much nicer and if any people like opera out there try sky arts channel channel 267 ;)
 
Most classical music is limited and formulaic. "You Put a Spell on Me" by Screamin' J. Hawkins is the best musical work ever created.
 
no

no rock or pop music can ever be the best work of all time it is not proper music whilst i agree it can be entertaining it will never be remembered like proper music eg beethoven:mad::mad:
