I've been taking formal piano lessons now for more than a year and while I still consider myself a very beginner, I believe that with the completion of Canon in D I have reached the first milestone in my quest of being a film composer some day (if that's what I choose to be in the future, that is).
I've finally got around to do a mediocre recording of this, so here it is:
Canon in D
Composed by Johann Pachelbel
Arranged by Robert Van Horne
Performed by Minh T. Nguyen on a Yamaha PS120

Due to the length of this piece and my numerous failed attempts in recording this entire piece in one single take, I decided to split up the recording into two segments and merge them later on my laptop. As a result, there is a point in this piece that doesn’t sound too natural and feels as if it’s missing one or two beats. I won’t tell you where it is—maybe I am lucky and nobody notices. ;)
