但是在wikipedia关于Johann Pachelbel的词条里,有这样的描述: Pachelbel married twice during his stay in Erfurt. Barbara Gabler, daughter of the Stadt-Major of Erfurt, became his first wife, on October 25, 1681. The marriage took place in the house of the bride’s father. Unfortunately, both Barbara and their only son died in October 1683 during a plague. Pachelbel’s first published work, a set of chorale variations called Musicalische Sterbens-Gedancken (“Musical Thoughts on Death”, Erfurt, 1683), was probably influenced by this event.
从这段描述可以看出,Johann Pachelbel与Barbara Gabler于1681年成婚,Barbara Gabler因瘟疫而去世于1683年。Pachelbel的第一部出版作品Musical Thoughts on Death可能是因此而作的。
无论有没有这个虚构的爱情故事作为背景,卡农仍然是一部伟大的作品。 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Af372EQLck
