1. Allegro maestoso
2. Andantino-Siciliano (9:01)
3. Allegretto-Polonaise (15:23)

Quote
“ Giuliani's expression and tone in guitar playing were astonishing, and a competent critic said of him: "He vocalized his adagios to a degree impossible to be imagined by those who never heard him; his melody in slow movements was no longer like the short, unavoidable staccato of the piano, requiring profusion of harmony to cover the deficient sustension of notes, but it was invested with a character, not only sustained and penetrating, but of so earnest[3] and pathetic a description as to make it appear the natural characteristic of the instrument. In a word, he made the instrument sing."
