I watched it twice and then played it for her in it's entirety. She said she was very impressed and that is all you can hope for when showing something like this to anyone.
    Incredible performance. Thank you for the video and for your efforts, it is very much appreciated. Bravo.

    Level 1: Canon in D
    Level 2: A canon in D major
    Level 3: An accompanied canon played in the note of D major
    Level 4: A melody with several imitations after a set duration, played in the note classified as D major by Pachelbel
    Level 5: A contrapuntal type of composition with a melody with several iterations of the melody after a given period of time, played in the D note, composed by Johann Pachelbel.

      being a canon it starts easy and then adds layers upon layers, so the progress is intentional and already composed into the script.
      thus canon is best with orchestra, not just one instrument; unless you can fetch an organ, all registers blazing :D

    This is exactly why I love playing canon so much. The court progression/structure plus the fact that it’s written in the key of D originally makes it so fun to play and all allows anyone with a basic understanding of the songs foundation to be able to add their own touching bedazzle in their own way. Now this level… That’s a different story… This is the level of bringing dishes to the potluck lol.

      @SolySamsung TrollySamsung You do not need to know how to play a piano in a figurative sense to be able to play level 1. You could teach a 3 year old to play a single note melodic+harmonic line. If you are physically capable, then the only thing stopping you from learning level 1 is that you don't want to learn.
