(beats per minute - eighth notes) order of play: 1-8, 1-8, 9-28, 9-28, 29-44, 29-44, 45-72, 45-72 measures 6,7 - in the Matteo Laurenzi reference video the last 2 notes are played as a slide (not a hammer-on) using the 4th finger measure 9 - in the sheet the 1st note is a dotted quarter note (not a 1/16th note) -- it could be played (with difficulty) be playing the D on the 5th string and hammering the F# on the open 4th string (?) measure 41 - in the sheet the lower note of the 1st interval is marked 'pouce' meaning it was intended to be played with the thumb of the left hand - this was common at the time, when most guitar necks were narrower than those today - other composers who used this technique include Mertz, Giuliani, and Carulli measures 45-72 - a repeat of measures 1-28 (but no 1st repeat of measures 1-9) Left Hand Fingering (LHF) below the tab - 1 - index finger (forefinger) 2 - middle finger 3 - ring finger (annular) 4 - little finger (pinkie) === - note held C2 - barre on the 2nd string c7 - part barre on the 7th string f - forte - loud mf - mezzoforte - moderately loud p - (below the tab) piano - soft p - (between the notes) pull-off pp - pianissimo - very soft |--- ---| |--- ---| |*-- --*| repeat the section |*-- --*| |--- ---| |--- ---| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the latest version of this tab can
