Notes (*)

*1 Mesure number 28 – Here is a possible variation of this

mesure, however, it is quite important to follow up with the audio
of this version.

*2 Mesure number 44 – See the first phrase on this mesure is

grouped in four parts, you will find a notation for the suggested
string on each part.

*3 Mesure number 51 and 75 – The bend attempts to go up ¼

of tone from G trying to get Ab
