Description
The Corrente of Partita No.3. True to its Italian-style name, it is an energetic movement of continuously flowing fast notes. It must maintain the tension of A minor while moving with agility, demanding finger independence and a steady tempo.
Suite-form works from the Baroque era; Bach's Partitas, a sequence of varied dances, are ranked among the greatest keyboard works.
