This section represents flowing fountains,
so maintain a smooth legato feel. Play the
harmony with another instrument or just the
higher pitch line if playing on one guitar.

I have charted this virtuoso section (which
is supposed to represent lightening and rain)
to incorporate two-hand tapping because of the
speed with which it must be played.
But it doesn't have to be. Even though it
is fast, it has a distinct triplet feel
so don't lose count while you are playing.
(notes are 16th's)
