Thirteen Divisions on the Ground Bass of Pachelbel's Canon (organ)

For organ, c.2'50

This work for pipe organ is an arrangement of Thirteen Divisions on the Ground Bass of Pachelbel’s Canon for piano (2009).  Based on the concept of improvising “divisions” on a ground bass. The term division principally refers to different rhythmic groupings although it can also refer to particular textural ideas such as combining scale-based melodic motion with arpeggios. The bassline of Pachelbel’s Canon in D was one of the harmonic structures employed for this improvisation task.
