The half bar at measure 6, which is what is in the score, is not absolutely necessary. At measure 6, you can play the C-A as it is here but instead of bar, play the E-G notes with 1st finger 2nd string and open G (3rd string G instead of 4th). You are still sustaining the E on the 5th string with the 3rd finger. The last beat of measure 6 is the B-flat played with the 2nd finger; and, even if you wanted to further sustain the low E (despite the rest) you could. I'm not being critical, just presenting an alternative for people like myself that have trouble with the bar in certain positions. Personally, I blame my guitar, and I believe at times I could put a woodworking clamp against my finger and still get a buzz from a bar.

For anyone who is hoping to play this piece or aspiring to be a better classical guitarist, I strongly recommend Eliteguitarist.com. There you will not only find tutorials on how to play a piece but also tips and guidelines on how to play it. I am a student at Eliteguitarist.com and I can't say enough about it. I just finished recording "El testament D'Amelia" using Tavi's video tutorial and I am honestly able to say that the lesson was more than enough to complete this task. Having said that, I wish you all a wonderful day and all the best in your future endeavours. Mohsin
Hi Mohsin! Thanks for the vote of confidence. I know you would never do this for yourself but, we will go ahead and post your recording of this piece :) Your playing is beautiful, emotive and accurately renders the emotional heaviness of the song. Great job! You make us proud around here. ruclips.net/video/E4QC6N7v-Dc/видео.html
Is the sheet music for El Testament d'Amelia made available? I have a copy find a few notes are different? I might try this if the sheet music is available.
Because we wanted to make sure nobody gets left behind and because we believe that these wonderful repertoire pieces can be within the reach of everyone determined to work hard and practice diligently.
Thank you for your instructions. I’ll be talking this peace…thanks to you, to my Nursing Homes visits.
Thank you. You are an amazing guitarist and a wonderful teacher.
I am glad this was helpful to you.
Thank you are a wonderful teacher

Why is there an explanation on drop D tuning for an advanced piece? Why not just explain that you don't blow into it to make a sound?
