TAB Edition (PDF)

Fernando Sor is one of the great prolific classical composers for the guitar. The unusual beaming of the original publication mainly keeps the score visually clean. It also helps to isolate the quarter note melody in the top voice which should remain legato throughout. Many possibilities exist for the left hand fingering but awkward chord changes are inevitable and result in a challenging legato study. Here’s the YouTube Lesson link if you’d like to watch it there.

You can also find the tab as a hardcopy in my Classical Guitar Tab book on Amazon. Join the Email Newsletter to get updates on sheet music and lessons. Please consider supporting to the site.
