@claudiutanase Since you didn't really get a response, if you don't already know, that piece is meant to be played in lute tuning, the G string is dropped down to F# and the Capo helps get every other string in tune. I think anyway, I have to do this piece for a school assessment, and my teacher always tells me to put my guitar into Lute tuning.

excelente guitarrista, pero en este caso en concreto, no se puede tocar música del renacimiento de esa manera fuera del carácter de la´propia época. Eso está muy bien para Tárrega. Lo digo desde el máximo respeto.-

Spaniard Luis de Narvaez, a fantastic virtuoso of the guitar and Maestro de Vihuela to Philip II. His "Diferencias sobre Guardame las Vacas" is from his "Los Seys Libros del Delphin de Musica" (1538). He appears here as one of the first great masters of the variation form, called "diferencias". The tune, "Guardame las Vacas" with its four variations, was a favorite with guitar composers of the time, and was known in England as "The Shepherd Carillo his Song". Thanks!
