A really pretty song

And as it turns out, quite a challenge. I thought I'd attempt to play this piece as moderately well as I can. I really didn't remember it being this hard.

Anyway, it's written by this dude... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_Sor#Sheet_music

Cool, thanks so much guys! I'm going to give it another go and do it how I normally do, which is just wing it and see if it comes out any better.

I tried to be more accurate with timing, but that is apparently a lot harder than it seems. It's a pity, as I think rhythm is just as important in a piece, and is generally overlooked in classical for more expressive playing. I really wish I could do both.

Thanks Pete! I must say, I've tried some of his other stuff and had a hard time getting in to it. Maybe I'll take the advice on the wiki page and try playing around more with tone colour.
