- Canzonetta in D minor, BuxWV 168
[3:59] (A=465)
In four sections: Imitative counterpoint on the Hauptwerk in common meter with a characteristic hesitation step contrasted with a 3/4 version of the
same subject played on the Oberwerk. The playfulness is interrupted by a strong transition on the Hauptwerk with Pedal reed, and a different subject
which appears recto and inversus (right- and up-side-down) is introduced on a bright Oberwerk registration, then finished off with a fuller
registration on the Hauptwerk; the Bordun 16' is added near the end for a satisfying conclusion to this short excursion.
