Minuet in G

Christian Petzold

For trumpet and piano

Written in C major, range G3 to E5

A small, polite dance for a family evening at home, light on its toes. It comes from the notebook Bach gave his wife Anna Magdalena in 1725. For a long time it was thought to be Bach’s own, but it was written by the Dresden organist Christian Petzold.
