Tarrega is one of my favorite. He is consider the father of Mordern Guitar. What i like about him is the emotions his songs carry. Estudio or Study in Em is a lyrical and sentimental ballad. Technique Using (ami) play with undulating volume to generate feeling. If you know "Romance de Espana" already, focus on the left hand fingering. There's one tough bit in the second part of the song which i have marked with a n asterisk. Tip Once you master the (ami) patterns, learning "Romance de Espana" will be easy. Bar[12] * This is a 5 fret diagonal stretch (High E to low E). Make sure you sustain G throughout the A,G,B sequence on the treble string.
