This has a lot of sadness in it, but also a lot of beauty. Because of the way it's constructed it's one of those pieces that seems like it was written specifically for this instrument.

Segovia plays it on Youtube here:

Would anyone be willing to rate my playing?

Considering the slowness of the piece and the fact that I've been playing for over three years, I give myself a D+ for performance, but a B+ for interpretation. I can't afford lessons, would appreciate any feedback.
