This is a piece by the Japanese composer and pianist Rentaro Taki. The title translates to "Moon at a Desolate Castle". This particular arrangement is from Lawrence Ferrara's book "The Student Repertoire Series Vol. 2", an excellent source for classical guitar study. There is also a version I have heard by The Los Angeles Guitar Quartet that is very good but this version is ideal for A|-solo performance.
