http://www.timothyseaman.com/ Timothy has put together a chart of easy fingerings for the six main chords in the key of D, in the order of the Pachelbel Canon chords so it can be practiced over and over! Here he discusses it a bit and plays it over and over for you to join in and learn these three major chords (D, G, and A) and minor chords (Em, F#m, and Bm)! If you'd like a pdf of the chart, request it at
[email protected]. Please be sure to include 'mountain dulcimer' in your request so we don't send the hammered dulcimer, uke, or guitar one! (No strings attached --- we just like to share things with people.)
By the way, once you learn these chords, you can play them along with the original Classical piece, Canon in D by Pachelbel, since it's in the same key!
