Pachelbel's Canon (also known as Canon in D, P 37) is an accompanied canon by the German Baroque composer Johann Pachelbel. The canon was originally scored for three violins and basso continuo and paired with a gigue, known as Canon and Gigue for 3 violins and basso continuo. Both movements are in the key of D major.
It has inspired songs such as Rob Paravonian's "Pachelbel Rant" and the Axis of Awesome's "Four Chords", which comment on the number of popular songs borrowing the same tune or harmonic structure.
