Tecla Notes
-----------
The arpeggios are almost all close together, moving up and down. Very nicely
structured. A little balance is added at bars 15-16 where the pattern changes
very slightly. Both sections end with a diminuendo, piano, and ritardando.
Practise the top line separately (D, E, F sharp, G, etc) and the bass line
also separately (F sharp, G, A, B, and all the way up and down again), to
clarify the structure.
Bar 7 has a very good example of economical fingering: the 3 alone is not only
useful for guidance, but also confirms that the open second string is used to
give a campanelas-like effect. [A baroque technique utilising open strings to
give a bell-like effect.]
"Andante" in Carcassi's time meant "with movement", not slow as it is today,
so "Andante mosso" means "with a lot of movement".
