In measure 5 the F has to keep ringing so it’s open G string then the B notes are cross string between 4 and open B. Listen slowed down to the timbre of the B notes to realize which string each is on.

Many thanks Ricardo!! I almost posted a question about that very phrase. I wonder if he was using thumb or index on the b string?

That's a really common phrase ... The way Ricardo tabbed it is the same as Faucher's Melchor book. Faucher notes it as all pulgar.

Yes it’s all pulgar, even that long scale. The arpegios use fingers, but the rest is all thumb.

Many thanks for the feedback!!

There were several other errors too, so here's a new version...

I honestly think it's not possible to get every arpeggio 100% accurate. However, the second arpeggio of compas 9, I am fairly sure this is a 5 note arpeggio. I'm drawn to the idea that it was played with tremolo fingering (piami) and not an unintended 5 - a suggestion which appeared on the José Menese thread. So I wonder how often tremolo fingering was deliberately used by accompanists (as an alternative to 4 or 6 note arpeggios) in pre-PDL days?
