Johann Sebastian Bach

Menuet Sol Majeur BWV 114

The ANACROUSE collection offers novice and experienced pianists alike a wide choice of classical works, from the Renaissance to the modern era.

We have set ourselves the goal of offering both "must-haves" from the classical repertoire and pieces by sometimes forgotten composers, all of undeniable pedagogical value. Each piece, sold individually, has been the subject of careful editorial work, both in terms of the musical text and its engraving, in order to guarantee musicians the conditions indispensable to the pleasures derived from frequent trade in these works.

The scores are offered in the form of traditional works (paper sheets), and also available by download.



The two minuets presented here, probably among the most famous pieces in Anna Magdalena Bach's Little Book, are taken from a Harpsichord Suite in G major by the latter
.In the manuscript of the original work, the indication to take up the first Minuet in G major at the end of the Minuet in G minor invites us to consider these two pieces as an indissociable whole.
