It was typical of Sor that he create studies that were both great music and with intended learning demands for the player. In this case the piece is an exploration of melody on the guitar as well as a highlight of an unusual key for the guitar. The key of B minor centers around the second fret and top four strings &#8211; a very \u201cquiet\u201d area of the guitar. The complication of this piece for the guitarist is to provide the breath needed to do justice to the melody while working within a very limited range of volume and color.

Well here is the answer &#8211;&nbsp; It comes from a classical guitar technique called \u201cThe Rest Stroke.\u201d Every melody note plucked by the right hand comes to \u201crest\u201d on the string below it causing the guitarist to hit it harder and thus creating a greater volume which creates..melody. All other right hand plucks are \u201cFree Stokes\u201d which are lighter, softer and then create the background accompaniment sound. See the video below and watch as the right hand \u201cring finger\u201d rests on the string below to create melody while the other fingers pull to the palm.<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jeff Dwarshuis performs Variation on a Theme of Mozart by Fernando Sor.

This particular piece purposefully captures every technical demand for the classical guitar known at the time as the theme is repeated through various expressions. The classical guitar at the time was about 4-6 inches shorter than today\u2019s classical guitar thus today\u2019s performer is confronted with considerable demands on the left hand in order to carry out the piece as written.
