Canon In D Sheet Music also known as Kanon in D Dur, Pachelbel's Canon in D Major, Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur für drei Violinen und Basso Continuo, Cannon in D Sheet Music

Artist and Writer: Johann Christoph Pachelbel

Pachelbel's Canon (a. k. a. Canon in D and Canon in D major) is Johann Pachelbel’s most famous piece. Its full German title is “Kanon und Gigue in D-Dur für drei Violinen und Basso Continuo”. The piece is not strictly speaking a Canon (as the opening bass line is not strictly copied) but a passacaglia. The piece consists of a two bar (eight note) bas line, which is repeated over and over. In a string quartet setting this part would be played by the cellist. The piece is therefore not the most popular piece amongst cellists. Unfortunately for them Pachelbel's Canon in D is one of the most requested wedding tunes. Strangely enough the work was widely unknown until the 1970s, when a recording by Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra is thought to have made it famous. The bass line and harmony of Pachelbel's Canon in D are so appealing that it can be found - either by imitation or accidentally - in hundreds of other pieces, including: The Streets of London, All Together Now, Don’t Look Back In Anger and Jolly Old St Nicholas.  Level 3.5 is very close to the original.  Level 3 does not have the tricky semiquavers of the middle section.  Level 2.5 does not have the octaves in the left hand of the middle section (you can hear the difference in the playback).  Level 2 is once again shorter by one section and the left hand consists of single notes throughout.  Level 1.5 is in the easier key of C major, and the melody does not use the quavers of the previous Levels.                                                                                                   BY:http://cid-f472f481c986be78.spaces.live.com

The Chinese Piano playing styles and performers
There are many techniques used in the playing of the guzheng, including basic plucking actions (right or both hands) at the right portion and pressing actions at the left portion (by the left hand to produce pitch ornamentations and vibrato) as well as tremolo (right hand). These techniques of playing the guzheng can create sounds that can evoke the sense of a cascading waterfall, thunder and even the scenic countryside. Plucking is done mainly by the right hand with four plectra (picks) attached to the fingers. Advanced players may use picks attached to the fingers of both hands. Ancient picks were made of ivory and later also from tortoise shell.

The guzheng's pentatonic scale is tuned to Do, Re, Mi, So and La, but Fa and Ti can also be produced by pressing the strings to the left of the bridges. Well known pieces for the instrument include Yu Zhou Chang Wan (Singing at night on fishing boat), Gao Shan Liu Shui (High mountains flowing water) and Han Gong Qiu Yue (Han palace autumn moon).

Two broad playing styles (schools) can be identified as Northern and Southern, although many traditional regional styles still exist. The Northern styles is associated with Henan and Shandong while the Southern style is with the Chaozhou and Hakka regions of eastern Guangdong. Both Gao Shan Liu Shui (High mountains flowing water) and Han Gong Qiu Yue (Han palace autumn moon) are from the Shandong school, while Han ya xi shui (Winter Crows Playing in the Water) and Chu shui lian (Lotus Blossoms Emerging from the Water) are major pieces of the Chaozhou and Hakka repertories respectively.
