Pachelbel Canon in D (fingerstyle guitar)

TAB AVAILABLE, READ ON…I decided that I would learn to play this tune for my daughters wedding. Seeing as she is only 3, I’ve got plenty of time to practise – which is lucky, for many reasons…

Yes, I am staring at the tab while I play; I can’t do this one from memory yet. It was arranged by Chief Noda but modified a bit for playability by me.

Sheet music available at:

Enjoy,
JAW

    Thanks.. I was just learning this song and I don’t do much fingerpicking so I was just curious which would sound better :P

    You play this very well…I think the ‘fake’ comments are because the sound is so ‘in-front’ which I presume is because you have plugged into amp or direct into the camera source. Cut out the little glitches on the faster bits re-record and it will be perfect

    Hi. I am a beginner guitarist that wanted to play Canon in D for my girlfriend as a proposal song. Do you mind if you can teach me if you live in Singapore, or send me videos on step-by-step demo? I would love to receive your help.

    depends on your tone preference, bare fingers=must softer sound, finger picks you will obviously get a much harsher sound out of the instrument, up to you :)

    dude awesome awesome playing.. with this song would it be easier using fingerpicks or just bare fingers?

    lol indeed ;) I’m not sure how people can think that this is a fake. It’s not like I’m playing some Tommy Emmanuel super-incredo-difficult piece; yeah it’s a bit tricky (hence dumb look on face) but there are many people who can play this.

    I’m glad it is helping out :) This video seems to be making itself famous…it will probably reach 1 million views this year!? It makes me laugh, I’ve put a heap more effort into other videos that get hardly any views, this one I just grabbed the camera played it once (not all that well either I might add) and slapped it up. The world loves Canon in D, that’s for sure!

    ;) There are a few of out out there I’ve noticed. It makes me laugh when people refer to me as a musician…a primary school kid would have more music knowledge than me….
