This is a Siciliana by Ferdinando Carulli. A siciliana is a dance in the style of a Sicilian folk dance. These usually have a nice easy and lyrical feel. This is a very easy piece but leaves a lot of room for expression. This is in the key of Am and is in 6/8 time. '|'s represent the 8th note beats. Don't let the close proximity of the notes fool you into playing it too fast; larghetto means it should be very slow.
