Notes and Legend
----------------
"In this little duet the pupil and teacher should alternate in playing first and second parts, so that the pupil will learn both parts. This duet demands
a legato, singing style in both parts, and where the dashes occur between the figures indicating fingering, the finger should remain on the string so tightly that the tone is carried from one note to the next... This is not the glissando... but is sometimes called 'the slide'... and is one of the most beautiful effects of guitar playing... it is correctly called the 'portamento'."
- Vahdah Olcott Bickford

The tempo of the Saitenspuren vid and the MIDI is 76 bpm (quarter notes).
