Hints on Recuerdos: This is a very difficult tremolo piece, and as such it is best to already have a very good tremolo technique before attempting to learn this piece. Look in the “Technique” and “Exercises” sections of this site for more in-depth info on tremolo technique. The melody line is in the thumb, so dont let the tremolo overpower it. Make the tremolo as smooth as possible, especially when changing fingers on the left hand. This is a long-term project, so dont rush it.

EDIT: Many players prefer to perform a shortened version of this piece that eliminates the Da Capo repeat. To play this shorter version play video lessons 1-5 as normal with all the directions on the videos. In lesson 6 play Ending 1, go back and do lessons 4-5 as directed, and SKIP Ending 2 on lesson 6 and go directly to lessons 7 and 8.
