Etude No.1 by Giulio Regondi (1822–1872). PDF sheet music for classical guitar with video performance and lesson. Comes with both a notation edition with left hand fingering and a separate tab edition. This comes from his collection of ten etudes for guitar. The level is late-intermediate to advanced (Grade 9) depending on your tempo. PDF Download.
Please note: This is a performance edition. Since I only had access to one manuscript (Boije 775) out of four there is some flexibility on small details of the score. That said, it is a well established work so the notes are all fixed but I did change some slurs to what I feel is more consistent and added my own editorial fingerings. I have also changed some of the notation to modernize the edition and simplify some of the three voice writing in a few spots to create a clean score.
Giulio Regondi (1822-1872) was a Swiss-born classical guitarist, concertinist and composer active in France and the United Kingdom. A known child prodigy, in 1831 Fernando Sor dedicated his Souvenir d'amitié op. 46 to Regondi when the boy Regondi was nine years old.

The sheet music for this study No. 1 is very good, explained as usual, that is to say very clearly. While the piece is majestic, it is also sufficiently technical without being too much. Congratulations and thank you, because with this piece, I really feel like I’ve progressed again, and anyway, it’s an immense pleasure to play such a work. What sound, what originality. I didn’t know, but I love Mr. REGONDI's music, it’s really great.
Thanks for the feedback. Regondi is great but difficult too. There is something about the elegance of the music that make refining it particularly difficult but it is also a joy to play. Enjoy!
