Turkish March,
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Mozart signature
"The greatest melody writer EVER" is perhaps the best short way to describe the Austrian master. His melodies have captured the attention of countless generations of music lovers and composers. Having achieved immortality as a child has set him apart from the rest of "the greatest composers' list".
Freshness is present in all his compositions and even when he tries to be profound and deeply spiritual, Mozart musical purity is always present.
Hollywood has depicted him as a musical clown. Far from the truth. Just like most of what Hollywood does, a degree of mockery is necessary to make the product apt for sale to the masses.
Still, the movie has made justice to the great genius of this magnificent composer by making it clear that he was a GENIUS. 
Turkish march is perhaps one of the 5 most recognizable melodies on the planet. The classical guitar brings out the piece fantastically well.

Analysis:
exercise
This is an ideal piece to deal with a few technical challenges. The first one is the double legato at the very beginning of the work.
You have to make your own exercise to overcome it. For instance, you can play the 4-2-1-2 sequence on all 6 strings starting with string 1 and going all the way up to the 6th. Do this for 2 minutes. The legatos will improve dramatically. The pull off/hammer on is performed by the hand as a whole and not by the finger alone.(animation below).
