This serenade will unlock the gateway to the enigmatic genius of the composer, enchanting listeners with its allure. Next, we will be mesmerized by Pachelbel’s Baroque masterpiece, the Canon in D Major. Known for its characteristic gradually increasing tension achieved through the use of progressively finer rhythmic values, this composition is a true gem of the era. Prepare to be captivated by The Swan, the most uniquely captivating composition from Sainte-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals.
