Published in Nuremberg in 1699, this collection of variations is an important work that demonstrates the composer's true mastery as an excellent organist. It comprises six arias with variations (however, the second aria has only up to the fifth variation, and the sixth aria has up to the eighth variation). Pachelbel dedicated this work to Ferdinand Tobias Richter of Vienna and Dieterich Buxtehude of Lübeck, who were known as masters of the organ at the time, with a dedication. Apollo is the god who presides over the arts, and each piece is likened to a string of his lyre.
