Tempo: apriessa. Short work of 61 compases. Very pretty.
Quite a simple and straightforward piece, reversing the pattern of the previous two fantasias de guitarra. The first 42 compases are free and transparent 3 part counterpoint cadentially divided into phrases at 6, 11, 17, 26, 37, 42. Thereafter theme 1 is imitated in two phrases until 56, where theme 2 is imitated as a coda. Pujol aptly describes the piece as having luminosa serenidad. Note the beautiful dissonance 9-10 suspension in 13 which Pujol corrects. The first 42 bars are quite free of full cadences. Interrupted ones at 6, 28. Full cadences, such as at 11 have an appended phrase which complements the balanced phrasing and mood already established and pushes the work always forward.
