2 Minuets: BWV Anh 114 – BWV Anh 115

The Anacrouse collection offers pianists, beginners and advanced alike, a wide choice of classical works from the Renaissance to the present day. It brings together major works of the repertoire as well as rarer pieces, and also offers transcriptions for piano solo or four hands, selected for their musical and educational interest. Each score, available individually, benefits from careful editorial work: a rigorously established musical text, clear and legible engraving, accompanied by a short biography of the composer and a note on the work.

Les menuets"BWV Anh 114 en Sol Majeur" & "BWV Anh 115 en Sol mineur", véritables piliers de l’apprentissage du piano, offrent une initiation parfaite à l’élégance du style baroque et à la précision du jeu articulé.

Probably among the most famous pieces in the Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach, they are taken from a Harpsichord Suite in G major by Christian Petzold. In the manuscript of the original work, the instruction to repeat the first Minuet in G major at the end of the Minuet in G minor invites us to consider these two pieces as an inseparable whole.
