Below is the amazing Matthew McAllister playing right from my score of Nostalgia (Petite Melodie), No. 3 from Tres Piezas Faciles, Op.19 by Julio Sagreras (1879 -1942). Such an honour to hear my editions being played by on the world’s great professional guitarists. You can download my free PDF sheet music here.

Julio Salvador Sagreras (1879–1942) was an Argentine guitarist, pedagogue, and composer. His many lessons are contained in a multi-volume method book that includes numerous studies. In this piece, stay very focused on the melody and practice the melody on its own. Watch for occasional bass muting on the rests.
