For more than twenty years I've wanted to learn to play this evocative Tarrega masterpiece, but have never been able to figure out the fingering from any of the TABS I have seen.
Do any of you classical players know of any instructional videos, simplified versions, etc. or anything else that may help to learn at least the main parts of this piece?
I know the melodies so well in my head, but can't figure out the fingering, particularly in the higher positions.
RE: "Recuerdos del Alhambra"? (in reply to britguy)
I have sheet-music of "Recuerdos" with fingering by Karl Scheit (very easy to understand even to who doesn't read music!) ; I may send you the pdf file of it, via private mail, mine is : gbv1158@libero.it

Not arpeggios, TREMOLO. Except for a few notes at the end, it is all p,a,m,i over and over again (with a few trills done with the left hand). That's right hand thumb, ring finger, middle finger, index finger.
