This is first part of Mauro Giuliani's Sonatina OP 71, No. 1, Mov. 1. It is the easiest one.

Mauro Giuliani was one of the giant guitar heroes of 18-19th Century from Italy. He was a contemporary with Beethoven. It is said that Giuliani played the cello in the orchestra when Beethoven premiered his 7th Symphony in Vienna.

In this part the theme gets one more voice, and is more difficult than the first part, but still an easy one. Also, it is a good exercise for right hand fingers.

The final chapter of this long right hand technique builder. Most important concepts of the whole series here!

Theme from Mauro Giuliani's "Variations on a theme of Handel" on acoustic guitar.

The first variation from Mauro Giuliani's "Variations on a theme of Handel". It is very similar to the theme, but the accompaniment gets more interesting and difficult.

In this part the theme is played in 16th notes and it's the final development of the theme in this movement, and it closes with finale.

In this part the theme is played in triplets, which add some "waltz-like" feel to the part.

In this part we have a recapitulation of the theme, and elements of previous three parts. If you did the previous parts you will easily recognize them in this one.
