I was sent to watch this in August and I'm still laughing at it, so I guess that I need to post it.
I realize that it makes very little sense to the non-classical-musically minded among us, but to somebody who once played Pachelbel's canon on tuba (the tuba part for the band is the same as the cello part for orchestra), I can very much appreciate this.
I love going to weddings and hearing the brides who are so excited about how they chose Pachelbel's Canon in D instead of something more traditional. I think I've heard Pachelbel at every wedding I've been to but my own.... (At least at the reception...)
This morning in worship, we sang Brad Kilman's "We are Hungry". I started laughing so hard, I almost had to leave the room.
Hey now...
ReplyDeleteYou attended my wedding, and there was NO PACHELBEL, thank you very much. Bach, Mozart and Handel, yes; Pachelbel, no.
Ah, and yet, your dad's quartet did sing the Taco Bell Canon at the reception :)
ReplyDeleteDarn it! Who'da thunk that'd come back to haunt me?
ReplyDeleteThat is too funny! We played Pachelbel at our wedding. We're guilty as charged!
