Pachelbel's music was less what than that of Dieterich Buxtehude?

  • Melodious

  • Adventurous

  • Harmonically appealing

  • Spiritually moving

Answer

Pachelbel's music was less adventurous than that of Dieterich Buxtehude because Pachelbel was a conservative composer who favored traditional forms and styles. Buxtehude, on the other hand, was a more adventurous composer who was willing to experiment with new forms and styles. As a result, Pachelbel's music is often seen as being more predictable and less exciting than Buxtehude's music.
