Notes and Legend
----------------
More information on Madame Robert Sidney-Pratten can be found at -

The mordents and the turn are not played in the MIDI or the Eric J Roth audio.

The sheet has some mistakes, eg in measure 12 the LHF is wrong, and in
measures 9-21 the sheet has G# (not G) on the 2nd string.

measures 15,19: in the sheet the D (open 4th string) is a half note, but there
is no quarter note rest, so perhaps it should be a dotted half
note and held, or played again (as in measure 17)

left hand fingering below tab right hand fingering above tab
1 - index finger p - thumb
2 - middle finger i - index finger
3 - ring finger m - middle finger
4 - little finger a - ring finger

===== - note held, length of note (duration)
|-3-| - triplet - 3 notes played in the time of 2 notes

- (above the tab) accented, stressed

^ - (above the tab) strongly accented
/ - (between the notes) slide the note up
< < < - (below the tab) crescendo - growing louder

- (below the tab) decrescendo - growing softer

F. - Fermata - pause, note(s) held
g - grace notes - ornament - extra note(s) played at the same time as,
or just before the main note, then immediately released -
measures 5,6,29,30: play as a slide up
m - (above the tab) mordent (? the squiggle is longer than normal)
rall. - rallentando - gradually slowing down
t - (above the tab) turn (ornament)

Notes and Legend
----------------
The tempo of the MIDI file is 72 bpm (quarter notes).

measures 22 - in the sheet, the G on the 1st beat (6th string, 3rd fret) is
a half note with an asterisk (*) (= hold as long as possible?)

measure 25 - in the sheet, the G on the 1st beat (6th string, 3rd fret) is
a quarter note with an asterisk (*) (= hold as long as possible?)

measure 28 - the last 5 notes of the measure are mordents - the given sheet
fingering is difficult - maybe play the 1st chord with a barre?
