The "Gavotte" here is actually a series of short Gavottes strung together. much like the more familiar Baroque Gavottes. comprising a series of related musical episodes.The set finishes with a final 'Volte"even more jaunty that the first.
In 1919. following the successes of Igor Stravinsky's collaborations with Les Ballets Russes (The Firebird. Petrushko. and The Rite of Spring). Serge Oiaghilev proposed t hat Stravinsky compose a new score based on the music of Baroque composer Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (lnG-1736). Based on characters from theItalianconunediadeU'arte.theballet also featured set designs by Pablo Picasso. Stravinsky's settings of these delicate and graceful dances marked the composer's first venture into neo-classicism. a style that would become a hallmark of his later works. While his arrangements avoided the use of mcxI.emism in general Stravinsky insinuated. his personal style here and there, most notably in the bi- tonality of the "Minuet" and polyrhythms intherousing"Finale."Hemusthavebeen very pleased with his simple and precise adaptations of these Italian dances; in
1922 he created an ll-movement concert suite drawn from this score. and later adapteditforviolinandpianointheSuite Italienne.
The seven movements adapted here for guitar quartet attempt to maintain the crystalline sonorities of Stravinsky's orc hestration, while exploring the inherent folkloric qualities of the guitar's colors. The ' Overture' utilizes a treble- dominated texture. with continuo-like chord voicings in the accompaniment. while the rustic violin solos are captured with the use of open-string strums. Working at the extremes of the guitar's tessitura. high harmonics imitate the open hannonics of the violin in the lovely 'Serenata:whilelowpizzicatoevokethe

NOW THAT YOU'RE IN YOUR SEAT...
If you mentioned the name Bach in the second half of the 18th centwy, people would assume that you meant either Carl Philipp Emanuel or Johann Christian - but not Johann Sebastian. In their own lifetimes. t hese two sons of the Thomaskantor were much more famous than their father.They represented two divergent trends in the music of t he time. Emanuel stood for Empfindsamkeit (sensitivity~ a way of writing that emphasized emotional expression and often featured surprising harmonies. sudden interruptions. and other dramatic moves.Christian's name, on the other hand became synonymous with the style Ngalant: a much mellower, happier vein. Yet, as always. one must be careful with generalizations as there are exceptions to fNery rule. Theprogramwillbeginwithaworkbythefatherwhere,especiallyintheshorterdance movements. he dearly prepares the way for the galant styIe of the next generation.

lf t he six Brandenburg Concertos were Johann Sebastian Bach's answer to the Italian concerto, t he four orchestral suites are t he result of his in-depth study of French music. although - unlike t he concertos - t he four suites were not cornposedasagroup.
A Baroque suite is essentially a set of stylized dances, mostly of French
origin.NStylized" means that the music is meant to be listened to rather than danced to - a description that certainly applies to Bach's orchestral suites, even though Bach himself didn't call t hem by that name. His title was NOvertures: for the reason that each work began with an elaborate overture in the French style. French Baroque overtures, whose original home was the opera house, can be instantly recognized by t heir slow, majestic opening. usually employing dotted rhythms (with alternating long and short notes). They also typically have a faster middle section in imitative counterpoint, after which the opening music returns. Each of these opening movements in Bach's four orchestral suites also incorporates concerto-like elements, with smaller instrumental groups contrasted with the full ensemble. In other respects. the four suites are very different from one another,in scoring and in the actual sequence of movements.
In Orchestral Suite No.1 , the NOverture" is followed by a NCourante," a dance in fast triple meter that figures in all of Bach's solo suites but nowhere else in the orchestral works. Next come two NGavottes: in duple meter and with along (half-note) pickup, and a NForiane: in a

In 1768,CPE. Bach left Berlin to become musicdirectorforthecityofHamburg.Yet he did not sever his ties with the Prussian capitaL and retained the honorary title of court composer for PrincessAnna Amalia Frederick t he Great's younger sister, who, like her brother, was extremely musical (both royal siblings were competent composers t hemselves).The artistic circle around the Princess included a Dutch- born Austrian diplomat named Gottfried Baron van Swieten (1733-1803), a passionate music lover who in later years was to play an important role in the lives of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. A great aficionado of 1.5. Bach's music, van Swieten also befriended EmanueL and in 1773 commissioned him to write six symphonies which stand out in Emanuel's immense output as one of the most striking set of works from this great cornposer'smatureyears.
The hallmarks of Emanuel's style- his fondness for surprising harmonic and dynamicchangesandemotionalextremes - are amply evident in the b-minor symphony,which is the fifth in the set of six. Its three interconnected movements

Of the 22 surviving symphonies by 1.C. •m
Bach, this is the only one in a minor key; •"m
it is a striking departure from the usually •mZ
carefree, graceful tone of Christian's mature works (although we have seen an antecedent in the early f-minor concerto). The appearance (or re-appearance) of this tone in the late 1760s seems to be part of a general trend that has long puzzled music historians. Haydn scholars in particular have noticed the sudden emergence of a largenumberofdark-hueddramaticminor- mode works by many composers in those years; t hey have referred to their agitated style as a musical equivalent of the Sturm und Drong (storm and stress) movement that emerged in German literature around thesametime.

Since 1762, 1.C. Bach had been living in London. and not much is knovm about his contactswith hishalf-brothersinGermany. (In 1768, Emanuel made aratherdismissive § statement about his younger brother's z~ recent compositions, which cannot m have helped their relationship.) Highly "o successful as a composer of both opera • and instrumental music, Christian took the eight-year-old Mozart under his wing when the latter was in London. and Mozart retained alifelong affection for the'English Bach."The present symphony l:¥ Christian. which has no Baroque reminiscences whatsoever, was a direct influence on Mozart's"Little"g-minor symphony (No. 25, K.183)of 1773;yet thework is remarkable in its own right not only as a model for a formerprotege .Wit h itssharprhythmicand dynamic contrasts. the opening movement makes a dramatic impression.The central NAndante piu tosto adagio: scored for strings alone - without t he pairs of oboes and horns heard in the outer movements - continuesinthesamehighlyemotional vein, as does the breathless finale which ends. startlingly,with a soft unison motif, as ifcutoffin mid-phrase.
