    Notice how when anyone else plays this on the left hand they need to cross their index finger over the thumb to hit the top note of the inverted chords. This guy's hands are so big he can play it with his thumb.

    No version of Cannon in D is better than your version. No one in the whole world can play Cannon in D more beautiful than you. YOU ARE THE BEST!

      Like the Cello and/or Double bass part with the left hand and playing each verse for times each, with the typical string quartet arrangement, for piano, too, for the full 6 minuites and something, most?

    This version is hands down to best. I have to learn this on guitar. Usually my favourite part of Canon is the part starting at 0:53, but in this arrangement it's hands down the parts beginning at 1:55 and 2:23 (especially the latter).
    This should be called Pachelbel, Perfected. Unbelievable.

    I loved your arrangement so much that it made me wanted to learn to play a piano. I started learning this song as my first song through the Synthesia app and Jane's video tutorials on RUclips four months ago and finally finished the whole song. Still making mistakes here and there but with time, I'm sure I will finally master it. Quite happy that I can play at least a song on a piano. No, I still can't read sheet music yet, but I may start learning it some time in the future. Thank you very much!
