Did Pachelbel compose both for small and large ensembles?

  • Yes

  • No

  • Only for large ensembles

  • Only for small ensembles

Answer

Johann Pachelbel composed mainly for small ensembles. This is likely due to the fact that he was a church organist and thus composed music for the church. Small ensembles are more practical for use in a church setting, as they are easier to transport and set up. Additionally, small ensembles can produce a more intimate sound, which is often desired in a church setting.
