- Canzonetta in D minor, BuxWV 168
[4:13] (A=465)
In four sections: Imitative counterpoint in common meter with a characteristic hesitation step contrasted with a 3/4 version of the same subject
played on a lighter registration. The playfulness is interrupted by a strong transition involving the Pedal reed, and a different subject which
appears recto and inversus (right- and up-side-down) is introduced on a bright registration, then finished off with the Pedal played an octave lower
for a satisfying conclusion to this short excursion.
