Dance Patterns" Johann Sebastian Bach's French Suites
[ send me this paper ]
8 pages in length. Baroque dance patterns are typically associated with Bach's French suites, a style of movement that is quite indicative of its time period. The stiff, rigid, unyielding movement so characteristic of the dance patterns of Bach's French suites reflect a period of time when self-expression was exchanged for a more mutually derived expression. The reserved format of these particular Baroque dance patterns mirror the reserved attitudes of the era, in that they are comprised of repetitive, monotonous movements without the presence of flair and individual expression that is depicted by the appearance of more contemporary German composers.
