Notes & Legend ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The tempo of the MIDI file is 96 bpm (beats per minute - quarter notes). Bradford Werner doesn't repeat measures 9-24. "This piece doesn't have anything necessarily to do with the right hand ring finger, since Carcassi didn't use it except in four-note chords and arpeggios. In fact, it may very well be that he composed this piece specifically to give practice in using the index and middle fingers in alternation, as described in the notes on technique above. Carcassi would probably have fingered it ppmi imim in each group. Or, Sor (and I) might prefer ppmi pipi. On the thumb leaping on the two bottom strings, see the notes on technique above. Think of the first and third groups in each bar as a chord and get the chord ready in your mind in good time in order to go straight to it as a chord." - Brian Jeffery (Introduction to the Tecla Edition, London, 2005) RHF: Bradford Werner - p i m a m a m a Edson Lopes - p i m a m i m a / p i m i m i m i / p i m a m i m i Jean-Francois Delcamp: p i m a p i m a measure 16: Edson Lopes plays the E on the 3rd beat on the 3rd string 2nd fret left hand fingering (LHF) below tab right hand fingering (RHF) 1 - index finger (forefinger) p - thumb 2 - middle finger i - index finger (forefinger) 3 - ring finger (annular) m - middle finger 4 - little finger (pinky) a - ring finger (annular) === - notes held, length of note, duration < < < - crescendo - growing louder > > > - decrescendo - growing softer cresc. - crescendo - growing louder dim. - diminuendo - diminishing, becoming gradually softer f - forte - loud, strong mf - mezzo-forte - moderately loud p - piano - soft, quiet pp - pianissimo - very soft rall. - rallentando - slowing down (and also sometimes becoming softer) rf - rinforzato - accented sf - sforzando - forced, strongly accented, suddenly louder c2 - part barre on the 2nd fret c5 - part barre on the 5th fret c10 - part barre on the 10th fret |---- ----| |---- ----| |*--- ---*| repeat the |*--- ---*| section |---- ----| |---- ----| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the latest version of this tab can be found at http://www.classtab.org if you come across any mistakes please let me know - weed@wussu.com ******************************************************************************** ******************************************************************************** Carcassi's Op. 60: 25 Studies STUDY #2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tabbed by Ilya (ilya__k@front.ru) This is my tab based on John Chui's midi available on www.guitarist.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ measure 12 - 8th note corrected to D (from C#) Thanks to Felix for the correction - weed@wussu.com - 8 January 2019 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4/4 | Not too fast (~90 quarters/min) SYMBOLS H half note - half rest |.. double-dotted quarter note } quarter rest fl. harmonic `/ eighth rest rit. rituendo "/ sixteenth rest s/ Segno == sixteenth note | four repeated sixteenth in /s | = the time of a quarter note ===== | ===== | ===== | ===== | ====== | ===== | "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = E-------0-0--------4-4-|-------5-5--------7-7-|--------8-8--------7-7-| B-----1----------3-----|-----5----------9-----|-----10----------6-----| G---2----------4-------|---5----------9-------|---9-----------7-------| D----------------------|----------------------|------------0----------| A-0---------0----------|-0---------0----------|-0---------------------| E----------------------|----------------------|-----------------------| H H H H H H s/ 4 ===== | ===== | /s ===== | ===== | ===== | ===== | "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = "/ | | | = E-------4-4--------0-0-|-------1-1--------0-0-|-------4-4--------5-5-| B-----5----------0-----|-----0----------1-----|-----3----------5-----| G---4----------1-------|---1----------2-------|---4----------5-------| D-----------2----------|-0--------------------|----------------------| A----------------------|-----------3----------|-2---------0----------| E-0--------------------|----------------------|----------------------| H H H H H H 7 ===== | ===== | ===== | fl.

I hope you don't need to look at the measure 9 again to notice the bass figure there.
