Jeong-Hyun Lim, also known by the online alias Funtwo, is a 23-year-old South
Korean guitarist known for his cover of JerryC's Canon Rock. Lim
has been playing the electric guitar for 6 years, attending
guitar lessons for only one month. "Canon Rock" is a rock
arrangement of Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D major by the
Taiwanese musician and composer
Jerry Chang
(JerryC). Funtwo's cover of Canon Rock is the fourth most
viewed, second most discussed, and second most favorited video
on YouTube. Many viewers have speculated and thought the video
as fake since the music is not in proper sync with the video.
Lim later stated to The New York Times that this had to do with
the fact that he "recorded the audio and video independently and
then matched them inexactly." |
(1653 – 1706) was an acclaimed German
Baroque composer, organist and teacher who brought the south
German organ tradition to its peak. His contributions to the
development of the chorale prelude and fugue have earned him a
place among the most important composers of the middle Baroque.
Today Pachelbel is
best known for his Canon in D, a piece of chamber music scored
for three violins and basso continuo. A tremendous surge in
popularity during the 1970s made the Canon in D a universally
recognized cultural item, one of the most famous classical
compositions ever.
