Better than Pachelbel’s Canon in D?😃
I like Beethoven, I’ll check it out.
 
Beethoven is to Pachelbel what French Cheese is to American Cheddar (no offence:p)
Great video BTW!👍

Woah, French cheese never tasted as good on a grilled cheese sandwich as American.:p:D
(none taken)
 
You’ve never had grilled brie?:confused:

I’ve just been watching the video. Fantastic performance - And no clapping between movements, which helps keep the tension up.

No, can’t say I have. I don’t really think one composer was better than the other, just different.
Beethoven’s was probably more amazing because of his deafness. Pachelbel’s music is very simple, but magnificent.
I really like Beethoven’s ‘‘Moonlight Sonata’’ as well, not to mention’’ Ode to Joy’’.

You’re right - I was just stirring the pot a bit.😛

But you should try grilled brie:thumbsup:
 
This was probably posted elsewhere on another thread, but this is a video I enjoyed of a “flash mob” performance of Beethoven’s Ninth that was sponsored by a local bank, featuring the Vallès Symphony Orchestra, the Lieder, Amics de l’Òpera and Coral Belles Arts choirs… The reactions of the onlookers is very enjoyable as well:

I’ll see your flash mob and rasie you the Ode by a chorus of 10,000 at the opening of the Nagano Olympics.

Btw, comparisons among ccomposers are silly, imho, esp. ones from different periods & countries.

But my favorite is Beethoven hands down.
