The first lines of Recuerdos de la Alhambra as guitar tab in TabCraft
The opening bars, as TabCraft shows them. Open it to hear it played, follow along, slow it down or change it.

Tárrega's famous tremolo study, as he wrote it: every beat is eight 32nd notes - the thumb, the melody three times, the thumb again, the melody three times - so the melody seems to sing on while the thumb plays the harmony underneath. The A minor half, then the A major half, each played twice. Slow it down to learn the pattern.
