EXERCISE
/
I previously wrote about muting the open A string (which is how I have been practicing it), but on the Guitar Pro tab all the notes are supposed to be left to ring throughout the entire piece (precluding some preceded by rests). Being an artist, it is of course my personal choice which way I play it, but I shall review my current approach at some point.
