Notes and Legend
----------------
"This is an interesting piece - it was published as [a] stand-alone piece
under the name 'Berceuse' and later got renamed as 'Lullaby' and became the first movement of Koshkin's Cambridge Suite." - Norbert Neunzling

In the sheet there are minor inconsistencies in the fingering and note lengths. The tempo of the MIDI is 72 bpm (quarter notes).

measure 28, guitar 2 - in the sheet the C on the 1st beat (5th string 3rd fret)
is a whole note (as in the tab), but it is also repeated
as an 8th note on the 2nd half of the 1st beat

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

dim. - diminuendo - diminishing, gradually getting softer
f - forte - loud
mf - mezzoforte - moderately loud

2<14> - artificial harm. - left hand 2nd fret, right hand points to 14th fret 3<15> - artificial harm. - left hand 3rd fret, right hand points to 15th fret
