Reviews about Canon in D and Gigue:  Great...but slow (I can watch paint dry while playing) by Jason Peterson * VSM MEMBER * on November 2019Any way to have a faster version/ backing track? Thanks.
Always good arrangements for the groups I need by rosanna d * VSM MEMBER * on September 2019Excellent arrangements
 Well condensed version by Gordon R on February 2015Reducing the Canon in D Major to just keyboard and violin is a difficult task. I would advise players to determined for themselves what they should include, - pianists don't have to play every note, and the violinist does not have to play everything in the upper register as scored. Be free to adapt this to your ability and situation. This is well scored to create a brilliant performance by capable players, but if you are playing this for wedding or background music, I suggest you pick and choose the notes and sections you need to keep it easier and more fitting for the occasion. In particular, for wedding music, the high-octave scoring is probably not appropriate to get the right tone for the occasion. (unless you are far better than me and can play rich soft high notes!).
If you are not prepared to adapt and require something more simplified, then this is not the arrangement for you.  Not sightreadable for pro's by Cheryl * VSM MEMBER * on August 2013I have Pachelbel memorized, but need a good, clear part for some church weddings where the church keyboardist doesn't have a matching copy....and this one is just plain scary looking. I printed it out and gasped, and recycled.
Truly wish that a very plain vanilla version was on VSM, without the ultra-high violin (which is not in the original, and not pretty IMHO). The piano part does not need to be so complicated. Disappointed in music by Odell on February 2012I would have liked to see more examples of this music before I bought it. Because once I downloaded it I realized that the first page was great (what I saw before I purchased it) but the following next pages were not what I was looking for. The arrangement was completely different than I wanted.
More difficult by A on April 2010This is a nice arrangement but is beyond my skill, which I consider "medium."
Nice transcription. by Roger Snape * VSM MEMBER * on August 2009Nicely arranged and fingered - printed score looks good too. Very pleased with this piece.
Pachelbel Canon in D by Doll on January 2009This arrangement is a little more complex than I was looking for, being a lower level intermediate player. The first page was easy enough, and that is what is displayed when you look at the piece on-line. However, when the download came through, it was much more difficult beginning with page 2. It will take a lot of practice and I was looking for something that takes less time to master due to a short time frame that I have.
