Pachelbel's Canon

Played on the Hugh Tracey Bb Treble Kalimba, this piece poses something of a challenge to the kalimba.

You can get the tablature for this song in the Classical Alto or Classical Treble books:

Hello Mark!

You're amazing! Where can I find tabs for 1:18 to 1:40 part (trumpet in original)? Only in the book?

[kalimbamagic]

Krzy,

There is a Classical Book (Treble AND Alto Versions) for $16 that include this,

and there is a Classical Download available at the KTabS website for.. $5 or $10? -Mark

I can't believe you can play one on my favorite pieces of all time on this unassuming instrument. I am absolutely amazed. Thank you. I do like the videos that actually show the hands playing the whole piece. I have this dilusional idea that I might learn this. Thanks, again

[kalimbamagic]

I've got this one in Tablature form - available in the Classical Treble and the Classical Alto books I wrote with Sharon Eaton -- ie, so you could learn it too (though I admit it did take me quite a while to learn - fortunately there are

many variations, so even if you can't do the hardest ones, there are always simple ones to play). -M

how long have you been playing?

[kalimbamagic]

Half my life. I'm 48. Search Youtube for Christmas Kalimba Medley - you'll find two that I did, and one that was done by someone who has been playing kalimba for 6 months - to give you some perspective. And I just got a piece written by a friend who has been playing for 4 years, and it is perfect and beautiful.
