Pachelbel Canon

[SicSkatez]

I loved it. Keep up the great tunes! (: cheers from the U.S.

[AaronTheHarpist]

@SicSkatez Thanks a lot! :)

[hemaartje]

You're absolutely amazing! :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

@hemaartje Thank you so much :)

[kimsmells1]

how long have you been playing the harp?

[AaronTheHarpist]

@kimsmells1 Hi! I've been playing on and off for about 18 years :)

[DJdelfoimperatore]

how much was that harp

[AaronTheHarpist]

@DJdelfoimperatore Hi! With a huge discount I got it for about €2000.

[grizelda1986]

I am really, really hoping you are about to tell me that I can purchase this from iTunes or on CD. It's beautiful. Definitely trumps a lot of the classical music I listen to! :) x

[AaronTheHarpist]

@grizelda1986 Hi! I'm really glad you like it, but sorry I don't have it in mp3 form:(

[BuayaGuy]

My favorite classical piece, thanks so much for sharing :)

And uh, looks like 17 people have no culture :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

@BuayaGuy Thank you so much for your comment :)

[LVanMaren]

I like how this arrangement is a bit different than the standard one. Nice. And what a lovely room to play in!

[AaronTheHarpist]

@LVanMaren Thank you :)

[Biake22]

What's a "canon"?

[AaronTheHarpist]

@Biake22 It's a type of melodical pattern in a song :)

[AndrewBoyd13]

@Biake22 row, row, row your boat... is a canon, because it has a repeating melody, that is often times played in a round. listen to an orchestral version of pachelbel's canon and you literally get lost in the melodies all going at once.

[chronodude10]

splendid!

[AaronTheHarpist]

@chronodude10 Thank you!

[fenderinter90]

Beatiful.....good music!

You know the version of Kotaro Oshio of this song?

Is wonderfully magnificent.....

[AaronTheHarpist]

@fenderinter90 Thanks! Well I just checked it. Pretty good I say!!

[07ghostRLZ]

Raro ver a un hombre tocando el arpa pero tu lo haces hermoooooooooooooooso. ♥

[AaronTheHarpist]

@07ghostRLZ Gracias :)

[Mary724934]

This is very beautiful! You look like you have fun playing :)

[mienchen07]

Beautiful! A Camac harp, am I right?

[AaronTheHarpist]

@mienchen07 Yeah! That's right. The model name is Hermine. I love the sound on this harp.

[mienchen07]

@AaronTheHarpist Really? Why didn't I regocnize it...I have a Hermine, too. Shame on me. :P Maybe I got too disctracted by the color. Mine is cherrytree, you know. :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

@mienchen07 Oh, haha!! It's ok:) It happens to all of us. It is a really nice model harp anyway. I got mine in 2005 from the World Harp Congress in Dublin. The cherrytree sounds like it would be a really nice colour.

[DarkHunter272]

Niceeeee.

[AaronTheHarpist]

@DarkHunter272 Thanks! :)

[Beev60]

Love the harp...and esp. with Pachelbel Canon in D.... so dreamy.

[AaronTheHarpist]

@Beev60 Thank you:) I also really like the song.

[dp17197]

im counting how many male harpists there are on youtube cause my freinds r saying its a girls instrument,but some of the best harpists are/were male...here is a perfect excample

[AaronTheHarpist]

@dp17197 Hey! Well although it's dominated by females, there are still a lot of male harpists out there. And thanks for the compliment:)

[dp17197]

@AaronTheHarpist you're welcome

[AaronTheHarpist]

@dp17197 Thanks a lot!! I do actually:)

[GoldenQueen777]

WOW Es hermoso, muy bonito

[AaronTheHarpist]

@GoldenQueen777 Gracias:)

[hatikukosong]

perfect guy with perfect song....

[AaronTheHarpist]

@hatikukosong Thank you *blush*

[rabbittown1900]

この曲のシーディー磐田市の図書館に置いてあって借りてきました­。良い曲ですよね。

[AaronTheHarpist]

@rabbittown1900 Yeah thanks, it is a great song.

[rabbittown1900]

@AaronTheHarpist 私もそう思います！。

[rabbittown1900]

@AaronTheHarpist 私もそう思います！。

[AaronTheHarpist]

@phantasm091 Haha. I kind of figured, as I make mistakes like that all the time:) I totally understood what you meant in any case.

[Marianofrv]

Delightful interpretation Aaron TheHarpist

[StradAmatiViolin]

I want one but it would probably take forever to tune and play the harp.

[AaronTheHarpist]

@StradAmatiViolin Hey! Tuning it does take a while, but I don't think it should be an obstacle between you and getting a harp. If you want to learn and you have the chance, I say give it a try :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

@OBrienAnita Thank you! I really like your playing too!

[PhilJonesIII]

How can anyone live long enough to tune those things, let alone play so well?

[AaronTheHarpist]

@PhilJonesIII Thanks a lot:) Glad you like it!

[crazycellist973]

No problem. It was just constructive critisism for a fellow musician! I would love to hear the sound at an appropriate height! May I suggest not lowering the chair (which would affect the posture) but raising the harp? Maybe by means of a wide (correct height) stool? Good luck!

[crazycellist973]

Well done! A little celtic lever harp, pain in the but! Your fingers should be a bit closer to the sound board. It will produce a more full sound.

[AaronTheHarpist]

@crazycellist973 Yeah I know what you mean. I think it's because the chair I was sitting on was a bit high for the harp, therefore I'd have to reach down too much. Thanks!

[Jawgina]

I love this song and you play it fluently and beautifully. ^.^

[AaronTheHarpist]

@Jawgina I'm glad you like it. Thanks!!!

[rosey83]

Beautiful :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

@rosey83 Thank you!

[necroniocarmilla]

Really really nice playing!

How many strings does this harp have?

[AaronTheHarpist]

@necroniocarmilla Hey! I'm so glad you like it. My harp has 34 strings:)

[necroniocarmilla]

@AaronTheHarpist

Ok, thanks :)

[iqoniac13]

hey arron.still waiting for for full version you said you do

[SerenityOfTheFallen]

MEEP!!! *quite excited* I LOVE THIS TUNE!!! And you Sir, are quite wonderful a Harpist. ;3 It has a nice ring to it, and I have it on my playlist twice, it's so good! I love it lots, thanks for putting it up! ^^

[bbqrain]

[AaronTheHarpist]

[tleh1]

[AaronTheHarpist]

Really? Cool! Thank you!

[mackyhyde]

I saw a woman on local tv here play it last night and i was instantly mesmerized. Nice of you to play it dude. It really is one of my fave classicals

[AaronTheHarpist]

Oh you did? What was her name? Was it Holly?

[mackyhyde]

Didnt quite catch her name, but she did play it well thats why i decided to search for a harp version and landed on your channel.

[AaronTheHarpist]

Oh ok, just wondering cause my mother lives there, and she is a harpist. There are not too many in the Philippines either.

[mackyhyde]

Oh, I see! Well, I do hope that there are others in the future who will be able to play the harp, violin and other classical instruments and put them to good use like you.

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thank you so much!

[gexsamir30]

amazing..

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thank you:)

[pau13pdm]

[AaronTheHarpist]

[mmk1996]

[AaronTheHarpist]

[lakers34]

Hey dude.. This is an excellent piece and it is flawless.. Nice playing really hope to listen a full piece of it.. =)

[AaronTheHarpist]

Oh thank you so much :) Nice to hear that!

[88kowboy]

I create acount here to write "It's perfect", it's great but why so short ;) I love this!

[AaronTheHarpist]

Wow! Thanks a lot. You created an account to write that? I really appreciate that anyway. It's short because at the time, the file would have been too large to upload on youtube otherwise.

[Vivsvill]

You played at my wedding 4 yrs ago at Santisimo Rosario, UST chapel. I'm happily married since then and I think your Pachabel Canon started it off! I've loved it so much that it's my hubby's ringtone when he calls me! Thank you so much! All the best!

[AaronTheHarpist]

Oh hi!! Yeah I remember of course. How have you been? I'm surprised to hear that you set it as your ringtone, but it is a really nice one. Definitely one of my favourite songs. Thank you!!!!

[021jms]

Wow..! well done!!! :)

[AaronTheHarpist]

[eyez2cwith]

Thank you... it truly brought tears to my eyes... my favorite piece of music, now heard a different way!!!

[gunchibaiyya]

Imagine that being played live on a moonlit night in front of the Taj in India.

[AaronTheHarpist]

Ooh. That sounds like a very nice setting. Thanks :)

[Jitenon]

Sounds great. You've got a fancy house there, chap.

[AaronTheHarpist]

[Ebiyu4869]

hi thats was awesome! how long have you been playing the harp? did you like took lessons? when you were a kid?

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thanks a lot!! I've been playing for about 15 years now. I started when I was a kid. My mother actually taught me how to play. I've always enjoyed it a lot!!

[kaatjepluk]

Hi Aaron,

I have really enjoyed your piece from Pachelbell canon in D. Would you please play the complete piece and put it online? We want to use it for our marriage. It would be wonderful to walk in to the altar on your music!

Greetings, Karen

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it. Unfortunately I was not about to add any videos much longer than a minute due to the size of the file I upload. So I apologise. But I'm sure you will be able to find quite a few harp versions of Pachelbel Canon both on youtube, and other places online. Your library might also have some cds of harp music. I know they do here at least. Let me know how it goes!

Aaron

[ayazhel98]

the first time i saw you u ..i wish that my daughter will play harp like u do....ur amazing and i always love canon.....=)

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thank you so much!! Maybe your daughter will be interested in taking lessons some day. That would be nice. Thanks again:)

[aQuaMarTiOna]

hello its me ella.. avonlea is in a mtv music video

she is playing the role of a judge in a music video and she hugs this really famous actor man ding dong dantes in the music video.

[AaronTheHarpist]

That's really cool. Let me know when it comes out on youtube.

[Oishasan]

Sweet music and handsome harpist

lol

[AaronTheHarpist]

;) Thank you.

[evewrites3]

That was beautifully played. With feeling.

[AaronTheHarpist]

Wow. Nice to hear. Thank you!

[Jarel8787]

wow great job! you sir are very talented :D 5 stars

but what happened to the intro?

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thanks a lot! I actually didn't have time for the intro because I had a limit to how long the clip could be. Otherwise, this would've been much longer.

[Jarel8787]

Limit? from what i know a regular youtube user has 10 minutes of playtime...

did you use a cellphone camera?

[AaronTheHarpist]

The limit wasn't about the time, it was actually the size of the file which I uploaded. I guess I should've changed the setting on my camera so it uses less space. It was a regular digital camera.

[christinepido]

i want to play a harp also!!

[AaronTheHarpist]

Cool. Maybe you should consider taking lessons if you can.

[christinepido]

i want to if theres a scholl here in the philippines that teach harp i would really take it..

[Hotwheelsonfire]

[AaronTheHarpist]

Thanks so much!! Maybe you should consider studying it a bit if you're interested.

[Hotwheelsonfire]
