It is noteworthy that this video was posted to YouTube yesterday, 4
October 2012, and today, as I watched it for the first time, it has
garnered 384,137 views, with 22,260 likes versus 233 dislikes in its
viewer responses.
If you haven't been closely following Sungha Jung's YouTube fingerstyle
guitar releases, here is a link to the one he published 2 October 2012:

This link is to his latest performance of Canon by Pachebel. Yes, there
are many other performances of Canon on YouTube, including some by
Sungha Jung himself, but this acoustic guitar version is particularly
enjoyable for just what it is, a fine rendering of a well-known score by
an accomplished performer.
Just for comparison, and a musical change of pace, you may wish to
review Sungha Jung's performance of Canon Rock on an electric guitar:
