!! this is the segovia version of the variations of 
'diferencias sobre guardame las vacas' as published by 
graham wade and gerard garno in "segovia -his llife his 
music" and it consists of the main theme ofthe 
romanesca "guardame las vacas" which was a very 
popular spanish tune of the 16th century and the 7 
seven variations written by de narvaez for the vihuela 
in his groundbreaking book "los seys..",which were 
later transcribed, normally, for guitar by a number of 
guitarists , the most important of all being, of  course, 
segovia.i have transposed the edition abovementioned 
into tab with all the notations which appear and all the 
tempo changes, but i have not arranged the variations 
in any way-that's up to u to arrange as a 
player..as long as u know how and why u arrange 
them in a manner or another..i strongly suggest u read 
a little about how different arragements of the score 
were made in time, especially segovia's and get hold of 
some recordings of the piece before u start playing it, 
otherwise u'll learn it superficially.there are layternate 
ways u can play certain measures from different point 
of views but again that's left up to u as a player.note 
that segovia for example skipped a couple of 
variations sometimes when playing the song [(the first 
four -played only with the theme originally - were 
composed separately from the last three which were 
published later under the name 'tres diferencias por 
otra parte'-more info at the bottom of the page :) )] or 
used slurs instead of staccatos and sometimes 
modified the tempo for different reasons affecting the 
economy of the song, whereas others empyrically 
changed the order of the variations when playing, so 
be attentif if u want to do a fine job playing this song, 
which is ,or appears to , relatively simple also because 
the tempo is relatively free...thats aboutit  :)  enjoy the 
spirit of music but do it as it should be done

!!! oh and remember that the first four are the original 
diferencias the last three are "diferencias por otra 
parte" (published later by narvaez) meaning they can 
be played next to the first four and the theme but are 
written differently (modality etc) and that is why i have 
not arranged them in the order in which they are 
usually played by an interpreter today-u are free to play 
them according to one of the many points view which 
are out there about this piece of music
