His soft and soothing \u2018Air on the G String\u2019 was composed way back in the 1700s (making it the oldest on our list). Its popularity has only grown as the years have passed. Now considered one of the most beloved and elegant string pieces ever written, \u2018Air on the G String\u2019 is a byword for musical excellence. Hearing this piece performed by a string quartet never gets old.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"770\" height=\"434\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9bQ9ncJdtng?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">London-based string quartet, <\/span><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/encoremusicians.com\/Giardino-Strings?utm_source=encoremusicians.com\/blog&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=top-string-quartet-wedding-songs&amp;utm_content=profile-link-giardino-strings\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Giardino Strings<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, performing an immaculate rendition of Bach\u2019s classic air<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Canon-in-D-by-Johann-Pachelbel\"><\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canon in D <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">by Johann Pachelbel<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve ever been to a wedding, chances are you\u2019ve heard \u2018Pachelbel&#8217;s Canon\u2019 before.
