J.S. Bach Sonatas & Partitas - BWV 1001-1006
Mel Bay - Chanterelle
The third movement is a pretty lilting dance in 6/8, with a thick mostly three-voice texture. Many of the chords are difficult to finger while keeping all of the voices intact, and the transitions are tough. There are also a few fast scalar runs.
