Op 59 Guitar Method Part 3 No 21, Rondo allegretto in A - Matteo Carcassi Tab & fingering by James Jay If you find any mistakes, or have any suggestions or questions, please write me and let me know. My e-mail is jamesjay@pa.xet [Change the xet to net - this prevents my address from being detected by web stalkers and I end up with piles of junk mail.] Standard tuning - EADGBE 0=== means let the note ring Finger # with a dash after it [1 - -] means continue to use same finger. Time sig is 2/4 All treble notes are 16ths except notes with a dot are 8th notes. Bass notes are halfs & quarters. The count is - 1 e & a 2 e & a. Each section has a 1st bar pickup! Count;... 1 e & a 2 e da da. The "da da" are the first 2 notes of the pickup (&-a). If you like you can play 1 thru 17 twice before going to section two. The format would be - Section One twice. Section Two. Section One. Section Three. This is a great encore piece. Have fun! <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SECTION ONE Major<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Allegretto 2/4 time Count... 1 e & a 2 e & a. bar #s 1 2 3 4 count.. &-a 1 e & a 2e & a 2e & a |-2-0-|---0-5-0---------|-----0------------|-0---------------| |-----|-4-------2.--3-2-|-1-2---2------0-2-|---3-2-3-0-2-3-4-| |-----|-----------------|---------2.-------|-----------------| |-----|-----------------|------------------|-----------------| |-----|-0=========------|-0============----|-----------------| |-----|-----------------|------------------|-0=====--0======-| 1 3 4 2 3 2 1 2 2 1 1 2 1 2 1 2 3 5 6 7 |-2-0---0-----2-0-|---0-5-0---------|-----0----------| |-----4---2.------|-4-------2.--3-2-|-1-2---2----0-2-| |-----------------|-----------------|---------2.-----| |-----------------|-----------------|----------------| |-0=========------|-0=========------|-0============--| |-----------------|-----------------|----------------| 1 3 1 1 3 4 2 3 2 1 2 2 1 1 8 9 1 e & a 2e & a 10 |-0---------------|-------0--------|---0---0---0---0-| |---3-2-0-3-2-0---|-----0------0-2-|-3---0---3---0---| |---------------2-|---1------------|-----------------| |-----------------|---------2.-----|-----------------| |---------0=====--|----------------|-----------------| |-0=====----------|-0=============-|-0=======0======-| 3 2 3 3 2 1 2 1 2 - - - 11 12 13 |---0-5-4-2-0---0-|---0---0---0---0-|---0-5-4-2-0---0-| |-2-----------4---|-3---0---3---0---|-2-----------4---| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-----------------|-----------------|-----------------| |-0=============--|-----------------|-0=============--| |-----------------|-0=======0======-|-----------------| 1 4 3 1 3 2 - - - 1 4 3 1 3 14 15 16 |---2-1-2---------|---0---0-4-2-----|-------2---0-----| |-----------0-2-3-|-----4-------3-0-|-----2-------3-0-| After repeat |-----------------|-----------------|---2-------------| goto bar 35 |-0==-------------|---------0===----|-2---------------| |-----------------|-4==-------------|-----------------| |---------4==-----|-----------------|---------0=====--| 2 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 4 1 2 1 bar~~~ 2 17 1 e & a 2e Section two begins with another pickup |-------0------| to complete the count from bar 17 |-----2---2----| |-----------2.-| |--------------| |---0=========-| |--------------| 2 - 1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SECTION TWO Minor<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< If you maintain the tempo this section will sound like half the speed of section one. Bar 18 is a pickup which completes the count of bar 17. This symbol &-a with the dash between means these 2 notes are 16ths. All other notes are 8ths. When I play this section I imagine a burglar sneakin' around the house! :-) 18 &-a 19 1 & 2 & 20 etc... 21 22 1 & 2 &-a |---0----|------------- |---0-----|---------|----0---0---| |-----3--|---1--------- |-6---0-3-|-1---3-1-|--0-------3-| |--------|-----2-1-2--- |---------|---2-----|--1---------| |--------|------------- |---------|---------|------2-----| |--------|-----3-2-0--- |---------|-0-3-2-0-|------------| |--------|------------- |-4---0---|---------|--0===------| 3 1 1 - - 4 3 1 1 2 1 1 2 4 2 - 1 2 4 23 24 25 1 &-a 2 &-a 26 1 & 2 &-a |-----------|---0-----|-------1-0----------|---------3-1-| |-1---------|-6---0-3-|---1--------0---3-1-|-----1-------| |---2-1-2---|---------|--------------------|---2---2-----| |-----------|---------|--------------------|-------------| |---3-2-0---|---------|---0==--------------|---0---0-----| |-----------|-4---0---|------------0=====--|-------------| 1 1 - - 4 3 1 1 3 1 2 1 2 4 1 2 1 27 28 &-a 2 & 29 &-a 30 1 & 2 &-a |-0-------|--------------|---1-0-----|----0---0---| |---1-0-1-|------0--1--2-|-3-----3-1-|--0-------3-| |---------|-2--2---------|-----------|--1---------| |---2-0---|-3----------2-|-0-------1-|------2-----| |-------3-|--------------|-----------|------------| |---------|--------------|-----------|--0===------| 1 - - 2 - 1 3 3 1 3 3 1 2 4 2 3 3 2 2 31 32 33 &-a &-a |-----------|---0-----|---1-0-------|-------| |-1---------|-6---0-3-|-1-----0-3-1-|---1---| |---2-1-2---|---------|-------------|-2---2-| |-----------|---------|-------------|-------| |---3-2-0---|---------|-0===--------|-0---0-| |-----------|-4---0---|-------0==---|-------| 1 1 - - 4 3 1 1 3 1 2 1 2 - 1 Repeat section one measures 1 thru 16 and jump to section 3 bar 35... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SECTION THREE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Tempo is same as section one.
