Notes and Legend
----------------
The tempo of the MIDI is 30 bpm (dotted quarter notes).
The edition revised by Carlo Carfagna (Berben, Ancora, 1989) has a repeat sign at the end of measure 12.

measure 2 - Paolo Amico and Rachel Schiff both play the 16th note (A) on the
10th fret of the 2nd string (which is probably smoother) but the
sheet shows a hammer-on from the A to the C

measure 4 - the 1st 2 notes on the 2nd beat (E 3rd string, E 1st string) are
both eighth notes in the Berben edition (so the 2nd E is played
with the E on the 6th string)

left hand fingering below the tab -
1 - index finger
2 - middle finger
3 - ring finger
4 - little finger

=== - note held, length of note, duration
h - hammer-on
p - (between the notes) pull-off
p - (below the tab) piano - soft
sf - sforzando - forced, strongly accented, suddenly louder

Notes and Legend
----------------
Listen to the videos by Paolo Amico and Rachel Schiff to hear subtleties
of the phrasing (which the video doesn't convey very well). The sheet has
a repeat sign, but neither of them repeat the variation in their videos.
The fingering is taken from the sheet.
The start tempo of the MIDI is 20 bpm (dotted quarter notes).

measure 2 - in the sheet the middle 13 notes are played in the time of 8 notes,
but the phrasing isn't clear
measure 3 - the sheet doesn't show what strings are used for the rundowns measure 4 - in the sheet the E on the 1st beat is a quarter note
measure 5 - 4th note G# (as in the Berben edition) (not G)
measure 9 - 16 notes played in the time of 9 - phrasing is up to the performer measure 15 - 3rd from last note is D (as in measure 9) (not D# as in the sheet) measure 16 - in the Berben edition the 1st note is a 1/16th note (not a 32nd) -
