10 Petites Pièces, Op.11 by Matteo Carcassi (1796 - 1853) for Classical Guitar. PDF sheet music or tab for Classical Guitar. Comes with both a notation edition with left hand fingering and a separate tab edition. Early to Mid-Intermediate (Grade 4-6). This is a PDF download. 65 Pages.
These are charming examples of the classical style at around the intermediate level. They present an excellent variety of musical textures and some beautiful melodic moments. There are not many works at this level that have some significant length to the compositions so I was very happy to find Carcassi's Op.11 works.

I have recently purchased and downloaded Bradford Werner's edition of Carcassi's "10 Petites Pieces". They are delightful pieces and I'm enjoying reading through them!
Most importantly, I absolutely love Bradford's editions! I have at least 10 of his collections and several individual pieces. They are beautifully done, and exceptionally easy on the eyes! His choices are wonderful. In general I just print the notation unless I don't understand where to put my left hand fingers, in which case I'll print the tabulature.
He puts so much thought into every edition, and the price and ease of "acquiring" new music to play is absolutely worth it. I've learned to play guitar through these editions!
Thanks Bradford - I wish I could study with you in person.
