hi Link,
Thanks for the classical music on your webpage :)
I'm a violinist. I'm 27. It's so nice to see another 20-something who loves classical.Appropriate that you have Pachelbel's Canon in D when you seek to escape the bounds of time? That's one piece that can go on forever (especially if you're playing the bass line!)
Do you know the Chaconne from Bach's solo violin (sonata? partita?) It's one of the most profound things he ever wrote for my instrument. monumental. it's in d minor. It's like organ music composed for the violin. Like the Canon in D, it's variations on a single chord progression. Gorgeous. He*laciously difficult to play. I can't even attempt it anymore. it's too profound to bear playing out of tune or sloppily.
