Short ID: FG31. Title: Jacaras. 39 diferencias. Composer: Francisco Guerau. Source: Poema Harmonico. Folio 35. Date: 1694. Facsimile: Tecla, p57. Tuning: Baroque guitar (A D G B E). Time sig: 3. Fixes and modifications (M=measure r=rhythm s=string): M83 original rhythm was dotted-4er 8th (8th) 4er. M105 original showed a single slur covering 8 notes, but Jeffery says this was changed to 2 shorter slurs in later editions. I assume the 2 slurs are connected, as in the surrounding measures. M130-131 were separated by a double bar. Tablature elements to be added by hand: Slurs. If only a starting point is given, slur includes all the following uninterrupted notes on the same string. M79 r4s4. M80 r4-6s1. M81 r3-5s1. M82 r1-3s5. M104 r2-5s2-r9s2. M105 r2s5-r5s4-r9s5. M106 r1-3s1-r8s1, r10-12s2. M107 r1s2-r6s2-r12s2. M108 r1s2-r6s2-r12s4. M109 r1s2-r12s1. M110 r2s5-r7s4-r12s2. M119 r2s1-r5s2. M120 r1s4-r4s5, r6s2-r9s3. M121 r2s3-r5s4. M122 r1s4-r4s5. M148 r1s4. Take a moment to fill out the 16th-note beams. Explanation of symbols: " = trill, generally starting on upper neighbor. On 8th and dotted 8th notes, consider a shorter, 3-note figure - main note to upper neighbor and back to the main note. , = mordent, main note to lower neighbor and back to the main note. Octave doublings: To connect a musical line on the modern guitar, or fill out the texture, consider adding the octave above the bass. For example, see: m53r1, m123r1, m125r1. Leading measures in Guerau's original tablature: 1 13 23 34 44 58 70 80 91 104 110 119 128 139 152. Last measure is 156. *** Download and edit out all material above and below the tablature. *** See my printing tips in the page, "General comments on the tablature." *** Print out starting with the title line below.
