Performance Notes

I tried to standardize what the violin was playing for the melody. [There's a lot of variation in the performance]. I tabbed out the melody based
on logic and also on how I saw Dorado play the piece.
So in bar 11 either fingering is OK for the 'a' natural on beat 2.[In other words don't play both notes, one or the other]! It's a bit of a stretch if
you play the 'a' on the 1st string, but it sounds better and works better for the picking. The main theme an also be played starting at the 5th
position.
