The
Easy Piano Duets
Series presents a selection of sensitively arranged piano duets, each with optional backing tracks. In the interests of playability, these two wonderful tunes have been simplified, while still allowing the spirit of the originals to shine through.
In the interests of playability, the strict formality of Pachelbel’s Canon has been relaxed while allowing the spirit of the original to shine through. The key has been simplified from D major to C major and the seventeenth century rhythmic notation updated to improve readability. The optional backing tracks allow for small 12 bar sections (between each of the rehearsal letters) to be practised both ‘slowly’ (crotchet = 70 with metronome click) and ‘a tempo’ (crotchet = 84), before putting the whole piece together — ideally in the company of another human!
Arranged by Mark Goddard with optional backing tracks (
