How in the world are you supposed to play this with two hands?

[FantaPepsiii]

OMFG! Tooo fast for me! ;D

But it is a beautiful melody.

[Ashhhirihizu]

Synthesia is seriously one hard ass game. How did you guys do it anyways ?

[KartSeven1]

@Ashhhirihizu It’s set to “Played by Synthesia” mode.

[xraydog2011]

Tumbs up if u note the Score is still a big ''0''

[MrSlimilS]

@What72687 You download it, it's called synthesia.

[kira4ever123]

[snake8622297]

[Entity7014]

PIANO HERO !!!

[Madjubjub]

That's a very quick canon.

[danreb147]

can u give me the link of this midi file?? tnx

[medic7771]

I can do most of the right hand

[kk911exxd]

thats not the real note from the proper version right?sry im bad at english :s

[GoodPLittle]

@FormerxH2xHiro maybe all the guys who play that way its a alien. who knows. and I agreed with you.

[HoodedPianist1]

@FormerxH2xHiro Ok, when I get my laptop working I'll show you that it's possible with 1 person. I've been playing piano since Nov. 2010, I'm 11, and I can play this no problem. And no, I'm not Asian, and no, I dont take lessons.

[FormerxH2xHiro]

@HoodedPianist1 I do not doubt any single persons ability to play Canon in D, just this translation. It seems improperly composed, possibly because during a few points of the song you require a third hand. The baseline stretches far down at the same time the high end stretches in the opposite direction. FOR EXAMPLE: at 1:41; 2nd D, 3rd F#, 5th D, 6th F#, and 7th A. EXAMPLE 2: at 2:47; 2nd G, 4th D, 6th A and B. Again, I'm only saying that you did not scrutinize as strongly as me. Check again.

[michaelcluffsmusic]

thumbs up if you thought "holy crap!" at 1:32

[FormerxH2xHiro]

Wait no, 3! There is a 3 octave stretch in there, good luck with that one, maybe if your wrist is built like a snakes jaw you can stretch like that. Meanwhile, your other hand is busy with one of the most active parts of the song... I would love to see this played by one person.

[aleiss28]

lmao @ is there a version for people with only 2 hands, there are much easier tutorials on here than this one lol

[555harrypotter555]

you should do shouldve said no by taylor swift

[ipodUser242]

are they needed more than 2 hands ? XD

i don;t know to play piano i;m just asking :)

[LightningDragon1999]

@ipodUser242 No, 2 hands are fine.

[LightningDragon1999]

Hey guys, you can play this with practice. You can also play it with 2 hands.

[MrWindy7]

@LightningDragon1999 no, its impossible for me, ive tried alotXD

im thinking about use foes xDD

[FormerxH2xHiro]

@LightningDragon1999 Sure you can play it with 2 hands, you just need to be 9 feet tall and have a pinky to thumb stretch of 2 octaves. Which is like a whole foot. I'm sorry, it might be just me, but me wee little fingers cant pleasure your ears with that kind of tenacity.

[LightningDragon1999]

@FormerxH2xHiro Ever heard of a sustain pedal? All this is 100% possible.

[FormerxH2xHiro]

@LightningDragon1999 Since you are so sure that this may be done by a sole pianist, why can you not do it yourself? Are you not a pianist, are you 9 feet tall? I'm seriously interested in this one, because I will watch with ultra-scrutiny anyone who does this on camera, over and over until I may replicate them. I )BELIEVE( that this is truly impossible.

[LightningDragon1999]

@FormerxH2xHiro I'm not 9 feet tall, I've played piano for years. I know what i'm talking about but I'm not going to do something because someone random wants me to. This is a hard piece thus it will take a large time. I am currently working on something else. And there is no sheet music for this. If you truly believe this is impossible then fine, go ahead I'm just telling you the facts that I believe and know.

[FormerxH2xHiro]

@LightningDragon1999 My belief causes me to be so inclined to get you to atleast study my point. This song, written by Pachelbel, is composed for an orchestra of 4 string instruments. You know all about the song, I doubt that you need to look that one up. It is written here on solo piano, which is not what it is designed for, again, you know this. Jordus has thrown together a bunch of files for the music that he/she likes.Could the file be a bad transcription? Is it possible? It seems that way.

[GoinDownTonight]

If I learned this my fingers would be super fast XD

[txpimg]

You may play on a real piano and watch the bar-graph score using iPianoMate for iPad. iPianoMate is available in App Store.

[PsyStardust]

this is the best version of canon in D on youtube

[mariocharro]

this is piano hero 3

[FanDenqaz]

Как я мог раньше не слушать такую прекрасную музыку)

[5tupidfilms]

what is the software for this?



[crackdatryu]

You're going to need a partner if you're going to play that

[DinokillerSithlord]

you must have pretty long fingers to be able to pull that off

[KateLizzyDobinson]

ahh I see... you have to use your feet as well :/ :')

[nice3333333333]

@KateLizzyDobinson No. You need to find a chick to play the bright nodes and yes it just has be to a girl, otherwise it would be gay.

(In any case that the person who wrote that comment is an girl, just forget what i said)

[AndrewScoreTV2011]

@KateLizzyDobinson umm... not if you play piano

[acesofshadows]

@KateLizzyDobinson wow, my chior teacher plays this, i play this one of my best friends plays this, we use two hands, its not hard, you just need to learn how to actually play piano.

[KateLizzyDobinson]

@acesofshadows yes, it's probably possible, I was just joking, hence the :') at the end of my comment :)

[TheSassy999]

I <3 this song!

[kakangabiel]

what program did you use?

[alexgootismyidol]

@kakangabiel It's called Synthesia.

[Aryonlight]

No, Chuck Norris can play this song with nothing but his thoughts, he doesn't need to save his hands because he never messes up :D

[LeSarahhh]

Chuck Norris can play this is with his beard so he can save his hands for the punching of the keys when he messes up >.>

[bma1742]

when i watch these videos they look amazing the problem is it seems un human to be able to play this song. anyone else notice that?

[666alberto]

@bma1742 as serial strings to compile xD

[ElijahK100]

Why do all of you keep saying, "I don't have four hands," or "I only have two hands". The song is really simple. If you watch it slow it will be easier to pick up the melody. Else than that it's just arpeggio style chords!

[MegaStaart]

how can you play the middle notes?



[MrBlockersPro]

@MetMeoxa Wait, what's your third hand? Oh..

[VietnameseGirl98]

I'm trying to learn this... and wow, my wrists are killing me!

[kidjang]

This is actually very easy. It only looks difficult. I learned how to play this when i was 13 years old. You guys should try it. :)

[ztayl34]

wowwzassss!

[MaidenIron1234]

Its like Guitar Hero

[kent910806]

must 2 ppl to ply it....xD

[LegoMania119]

um i sang this song in a choir and its called cannon in d not cannon

[ElijahK100]

@LegoMania119 It's just kind of become known as Canon. Some people sing/play the song in other keys so they just refer to it as Canon.

[rclemenkowff]

i can do this with 2 hands.

[darktsukih8u2]

@rclemenkowff All the notes? PLEASE TEACH ME RIGHT NOW

[bumtaksi]

awesome man !!!

[DeathBear27]

Played like this, the song has no emotion

[ZeRoLiMiTz117]

@DeathBear27

Exactly. Congratulations OP, you can play it, now go actually play it.

[RoyalRose122]

The Best Canon in D version EVER !!!

[michwaf]

@MetMeoxa Nice that u already have 3 hands =D

[Onetowthreekiller]

@MetMeoxa so low-skilled? play the middel notes with your thumbs! :P

[virginia17032010]

So fast.

[FlameSpiritDancer]

Just sounds terrible. ChibiVamp232 I agree with you this version is mocking the composer!

[MrAlpgum]

thumps up if you are not a pianist and you just wanted to watch the vid to see the notes pouring down..

[iEatYoButt]

@MrAlpgum I thumps up 100x but nothing happened! Hmm, let me press this button, right next to this comment, thumbs down. Sounds weird, but let me press it. Woops! Oooh, you meant thumbs up! Sorry, too late :D

[MrAlpgum]

@iEatYoButt yes it was thumbs up :D

[JTYF2]

@MrAlpgum

[CrazzyCowcat]

Why can't I find the version I always play?

[kenjiklu]

Can anyone tell me what software he is using?

[WinterRenes]

@kenjiklu synthesia :)

[michwaf]

@kenjiklu PianoPro 2 on Xbox

[SuperMhops]

Synthesia is name of program

[ChibiVamp232]

Too many wrong notes and it is off tempo. SEVERELY. This is a slower song, I know, I'm a pianist and I have the sheet music.

[trackmaniacdnblackx]

nice song

;D

[hidekieu]

more onde hand and i can play =D nice ^^

[RAYMOXX]

really u need 3 hands in some parts :s

[InuyashaBleach56]

@RAYMOXX no you dont need three hands I can play all of this song with two hands. Or maybe that is just me

[RAYMOXX]

@InuyashaBleach56 yeah u can play most part ot the song whit two hands haha but how do u play the min 1:03, you really have a big hand to play the notes at the left

[joshsalas12]

chuck norris can play this with only his one finger

[pikhatu]

well looks like Im gonna need another hand.

[FayleneSky]

you really were off on certain section, good performance though

[thetoroga9494]

where can i get synthesia?

this is way too fast, too.

[thedoctorTARDIS]

@thetoroga9494 you can slow it down on the programme its free and called syntheseisa (might be spelt wrong)

[EasyNorwegian]

@thetoroga9494 You just had to search synthesia........google...

[TheTimoNizor]

wow i thought ima learn this looks pretty easy but then after after 1:21 o.O!!

[MrCzecher]

one day i shall return able to play this (excluding the far left notes

[ACCFJulia]

It's like poetry in piano/music form; beautiful. Who ever hates this sucks!xD

[bachinblack94]

you must to have an organ with bass pedals, or at least three hands.

[nanotek2711]

this requires 2 people or I have to use my toes

[megafurcia]

me gusta xD



[ArnhemBoy20]

After I watched this my screen waves

[lacrossebabe23]

im pretty sure thats UR version. I learned this song about a year ago and it was like soooooooo muuchhh different!!!

[TheReggie1996]

wholly fuck man your awsome

[StraySilence]

yea, I'm sorry, but is there any version for people with only two hands?

[lameguy3000]

@StraySilence you can play it both :)

[bumtaksi]

@lameguy3000 he didnt play that,the computer plays!

[joetang148]

@bumtaksi but i think he wrote it for the computer to play

[ViolinOnDaRun]

@StraySilence this is 1 with 2 hands

[TheTsiku]

@StraySilence trick is to bang piano with your forehead

[txpchronic]

@StraySilence no... just for tallented people ;)

[JonasPLaursen]

@StraySilence Yea I'm sorry, but if you actually watched the tutorial, then you would realize it is able to play with yeah, 2 hands, if you have a pedal. Since the your pinkyfinger and thumb on left hand never reach longer than an octave, which should be pretty common to be able to play, unless god made you with unbelievable small hands :)

[StraySilence]

@JonasPLaursen oh. and I thought everyone will get the joke, apparently not.

[JonasPLaursen]

@StraySilence Yeah, That's what I would've said aswell ;)

[Adrimannetje]

I'd like to know how to play 2 notes that are 13 places out of each other with 1 hand, you should make a tutorial on that, I'd love to see you go through pain to do that. (:

[nickjrfromtons]

Canon in D (or C in some variations) is made up of the same chords, so in essence there could be 32526387248 different variations. The chords in D are D A Bm F#m G D G A, and in C it's C G Am Em F C F G. Of course, there are some parts that you should hear in pretty much every variation (such as 0:48-1:05).

I've actually played a crazily simple version of Canon without the part I mentioned, but it's still called Canon in D, because of the chords.

So this version is really just fine. ^^

[mamupolz]

if you want to play this song you need three hands :))

[LightningDragon1999]

he didn't play this...

[FUTUREJUNGLEST]

lol its fast but thats it (even though there are wrong notes)

[artspret1]

you mist the dubble note on 0:33 no offence :P

and nice but do u have super hands cause i think some cant play this :P

[sugartiff100]

i could play this song!

[pokemongproductionz]

youll need super fingers to play it

[Armelas]

it's good but your throwing way too many chords in there but good anyways

[mscanon06]

[crazyman0302]

[peerliite2905]

[linksgirlfriend50]

I don't care if this isn't the real version, or if there are wrong notes. It still sounds perfectly nice. It's a nice arrangement.

[willywonkaking3001]

[Yupi525]
