    Notes and Legend
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    None of the studies have a key signature but No 4 sounds like it is in A minor. Measures 25-38 are a repeat of measures 1-14.
    Order of play: 1-16, 1-16, 17-24, 17-24, 25-40

    The piece would be easier if all the Es were played on open strings, but this would make it more diffficult to play them staccato. [Comments welcome!]

    left hand fingering below the tab -
    1 - index finger
    2 - middle finger
    3 - ring finger

    - accented, marked, stressed
    bpm - beats per minute
    mf - mezzoforte - moderately loud
    mp - mezzopiano - moderately soft
    s - staccato - detached, cut off, the note is not held for its full value
