Bach, this ...Despite being contemporaneus with J.S. Bach, this seems a very "primitive" example of Baroque Music. The entire piece –– really a <i>sute</i> –– is all in one key, and remains harmonically static throughout –– no modulations and no chro maticism whatsoever.. Interest is provided only by changes in tempo, variation in figurations for the strings, and modest changes in instrumentation. <br /><br />Funny! I actually KNEW Newell Jenkins (the conductor) in my New York days in this regard: ––we often found ourselves invited to the same party by a smll group of Juilliard personnel and hangers on. Jenkins was an amiable enough guy, but was not too well regarded by the Juilliard faculty who attended these gatherings.
