French Overture b minor BWV 831
HN1304
In 1735 Johann Sebastian Bach published his French Overture BWV 831 together with the famous Italian Concerto as the second part of his “Clavier-?bung”. The designation Ouvert?re (Overture) can be somewhat misleading, since this work consists not just of an opening movement but also of a full-fledged partita with 11 movements: Ouvert?re, Courante, Gavotte I & II, Passepied I & II, Sarabande, Bourr?e I & II, Gigue and Echo. In terms of melodic richness and rhythmic play it is on a par with its sister-pieces from Part 1 of the “Clavier ?bung“, the 6 Partitas BWV 825-830.
