F.T. Schuman(n) wrote quite a lot of music for the wire-strung guittar. Lesson XXXV is from Thirty Eight Lessons...for the Guittar (1763) - possibly his first publication for the instrument.

Minor keys are rare in English guitar (wire-strung guittar) music and F minor is very rare indeed. Like many pieces for the wire-strung guittar this little piece is just a single line of music. Some players may have added bits of harmony and bass but most composers (with the exception of Straube and Ritter and some others) have the single line as the basis of guittar music.

This piece could be the 'trio' section of the preceding Lesson, a Minetto in F, but it isn't actually specified to be so.
