Bach Minuet BWV 121 Audio

This Minuet by J.S. Bach is an all Level 6 piece in C minor. There are accidentals throughout this piece. So listen frequently to individuals in the beginning stages to ensure correct notes and fingerings. There is a short shift for parts 2 and 3 to 3rd position that is preceded and followed by rest. The primary teaching material for the Minuet are the key signature and the triplet figures in the B section. As with all of Bach's music, there were no dynamics written by the composer. The indicated dynamics are suggestions. Possibly have the students phrase this piece themselves.
