Absolutely gorgeous! Prefer this performed by a small ensemble than a large orchestra. Wonderful playing!

@lichtbroeder This is the way Boccherini wrote it.

衛兵の行進です。遠くから近づいてきた軍楽隊が目の前を通り過ぎ­、そして見えなくなって行きました。たったそれだけなのに・・・­マドリッドの町の匂いがするようです。

me trae muchos recuerdos esta presentación pues en una oportunidad, en el teatro nacional de Guatemala, yo interpreté la guitarra con el cuarteto contemporáneo de Guatemala

Several years ago I visited Mexico City, and my host took me to one of the Baroque churches there. When we entered, I thought we had stumbled upon a concert, but it was an actual Mass with a small orchestra such as this. After Mass, they Had benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. When the "Tantum Ergo" was sung, the melody that they used was: this very one that is playing! The music lent itself to the Latin words beautifully.
