"Rejoice Always" for Classical Guitar
The piece is written in the key of G Major, with a brief escape to the key of E Minor in the second section.
There is an ongoing dialogue between the top note and the bottom note of each chord, so those notes should be emphasized a bit.
The player would benefit from figuring out what the blocked chords are and practicing those in blocked form at first. When playing the piece as written, the fingers of the right hand should be prepared or planted on the strings before rolling out the chords. This is pretty standard in classical guitar technique.
Most importantly, the player should let all the broken-chord notes ring out for the entire duration of the chord. This is marked at the beginning of the piece with “let ring.”
The score is written in traditional Staff notation with TAB underneath. There are three pages in the score.
